"The Best Of What's Around" lyrics
"The Best Of What's Around"
Hey, my friend
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your time with me?
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off your mind?
See, you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
So can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where, but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
When you're around
And if you hold on tight
To what you think is your thing
You may find you're missing all the rest
Well she ran up into the light surprised
Her arms are open
Her mind's eye is
Seeing things from a
Better side than most can dream
On a better road I feel
Oh, you could say she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where, but what you think
That really matters
That really matters
That really matters
That really matters, yeah
See, you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
So can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where, but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
When you're around
We'll make the best of what's around

Dawes - "If I Wanted Someone" Like the memory from your mother's house
From before you got too old
Like the feeling from a photograph
Before it's meanings all got told
The words I say can be silver
But what's left unsaid can be...
Guster - "Fa Fa" When you look in the mirror
Wish you were somebody else
Just a perfect reflection
You and no one else
Minutes run into hours
Hours run into days
You're still waiting for someone
Who never ever came...
The Wallflowers - "Josephine" I feel pretty good
I feel all right
And I've been thinking maybe
Well, I could spend the night
I know you've been sad
I know I've been bad
But if you'd let me
I'd make you ribbons from a paper bag...
Hootie & The Blowfish - "Old Man & Me" Well an old man said to me
In a voice filled with pain
Where you going young man
Said I'm going to fight a war
Gonna fight for my country
In some foreign land
He said "The sun will never hurt...
John Mayer - "New Deep" I'm so alive
I'm so enlightened
I can barely survive
A night in my mind
I've got a plan
I'm gonna find out just how boring I am
And have a good time
Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to...
