"Best Guess" lyrics

"Best Guess"

Clasping your necklace
Zipping your dress
Hands on your waist
Kissing your neck
I love your body
I love your mind
They will change
So will mine
But you are

My best guess at the future
You are my best guess
If I were a gambling man, and I am
You'd be my best bet

Tracing your tan lines
Making you mine
If this doesn't work out
I'll lose my mind
And after a while
I will be fine
But I don't wanna be fine
I want you, you, you are

My best guess at the future
You are my best guess
If I were a gambling man, and I am
You'd be my best bet

Here is the church
Here is the steeple
You were looking for saints
But you only found people
Ain't that just the way it goes?
I watched you fall from grace, you were graceful
After all, it's a small world
You may not be an angel
But you are my girl
You are my pack a day
You are my favorite place
You were my best friend before you were

My best guess at the future
You are my best guess
If I were a gambling man, and I am
You'd be my best bet (Best bet)

You are my best guess at the future
You are my best guess (Best guess)
If I were a gambling man, and I am (Best bet)
You'd be my best bet (Best bet)

Best bet
Best guess
Best bet
Best bet
