Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Fight or flight, it's black and white

I froze in time and I'm stoppin' the traffic

I couldn't catch my breath

I don't know why I even tried

To fight it when the fact of the matter

Was you already left

[PreChorus]

There, alone inside my room

As my heart broke into two

On my knees, I hope you see the truth

[Chorus]

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

[PostChorus]

One, two, three, four

Oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]

I was blind to all the signs

I cried my eyes out when I told your papa

That I tried my best

I crossed my heart and hoped to die

I gave the hate a sweet goodbye so

Only love was left

[PreChorus]

I know you've got your point of view

Now you know I've got mine too

[Chorus]

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

[PostChorus]

Oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh

[Bridge]

After all that we've been through

I forgive myself in you

And I hope that one day you can too

I only want the best for you

[Chorus]

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

And I hope that all your stars align

I want the best, I only want the best for

And that your heart can heal in time, and

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you

All your dreams come true

And you should know the heart you broke

I want the best, I only want the best for

Just didn't want to let you go

I want the best, I only want the best for

And that I only want the best for you

I want the best, I only want the best for you

I only want the best for you

[Outro]

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for

I want the best, I only want the best for you
