Lyrics Only the Very Best - Elaine Paige

No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
A reasonable request

This is too high a price to pay
Now they've taken you away
Might as well take me

Down, down to hell for I don't care
They can put me anywhere
Throw away the key

I always walked a definite line
Cutting a dash, cutting it fine
And once only once did I lose control
I gave him my soul
And I gave
And I gave
And I gave him my soul

I was immortal till today
Now I feel a cold decay
Crawling over me
Over me

No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
No other interest

This is the way it should remain
Never feeling any pain
Never growing old

Sleep sleep my love you night is here
Mine is drawing very near
Oh it's getting cold
