Lyrics Best of Me - Alex Aiono

You need somebody with a PhD
Someone who's home, steady as stone
But I'm trying to get this b-a-g
And you hate the jokes, just like you hate the road
And you compromise a bit too much
I see what it takes, I see how you break
But you never put that weight on us
Oh, isn't that something?

Maybe I'm wrong to have thought we had everything
Maybe I'm wrong to assume you'd be fine
Maybe it's time that I see on your side of things
Maybe it's time

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me
Oh, if you gotta go, don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones
But if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me
'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are

I can't pretend like I'll just be okay
'Cause I'm not at all, and all that I know is
You deserve to have it go your way
So, tell me what you want and I'll follow along

'Cause maybe I'm wrong to have thought we had everything
Maybe I'm wrong to assume you'd be fine
Maybe it's time that I see on your side of things
Maybe it's time

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me
Oh, if you gotta go, don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones
Oh, if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me
'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are
That's what you are
Ah-ah-are

You need somebody with a PhD
Someone who's home, steady as stone
Oh, and maybe that someone ain't me

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me
Oh, if you gotta go, don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones
Oh, if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me
'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are

That's what you are
Ah-are
