The Best Part of You Songtext

von Karla Bonoff

Written on the wind
The words go by
I see that time
Like a dream now

Waves and water roll up around my feet
Living on the island with you
And back behind the trees
We lay side by side
I touch your face and
You'd kiss my eyes
With our love suspended in time and space
The hurt we never thought we'd face

I know they'll never fade
Those memories we made
Sad times slip away
And I hold on to the best part of you

And then we hit the road
Of miles and stars
Just you and me and America
Playing in the fields by the highway farms
We rest until the night came down
And when you take the wheel
I'd sleep awhile
And drift away from the world outside
Waking in the sun in another state
I never felt my love so great

I know they'll never fade
Those memories we made
Sad times slip away
And I hold on to the best part of you

I know they'll never fade
Those memories we made
Sad times slip away
And I know I knew
The best part of you
