"The Best" lyrics

All the fairy tales I've watched have a happy ending
Ours was just the start of me and now we're just pretending
That we fell in love and it's the same as it was at the start
Never knew one-sided love was something people went through
Give your heart away to someone you were never meant to
You do all you can but nothing is ever enough

Oh, what a waste of loving you

'Cause I'd wish you the best but you already had it
Whoever comes next, I hope they make you happy
I hope that you find someone who's gonna put in the work
Be patient and give you what you don't deserve
I'd wish you the best but I think we both know
You had it, you had it but you let it go

Never saw a movie where the guy goes out at night
And comes back in the morning acting like we'd be all right
He'd go kiss a girl and tell me that it never happened
But I know that it happened
He'd make you feel like you're the only one that's being stupid
'Cause how can you not trust him? It's a game you're always losing
Thought he was the one, but oh boy was I
So damn wrong

Oh, what a waste of loving you

'Cause I'd wish you the best but you already had it
Whoever comes next, I hope they make you happy
I hope that you find someone who's gonna put in the work
Be patient and give you what you don't deserve
I'd wish you the best but I think we both know
You had it, you had it but you let it go

But you let it go
You had it

'Cause I'd wish you the best but you already had it
Whoever comes next, I hope they make you happy
I hope that you find someone who's gonna put in the work
Be patient and give you what you don't deserve
I'd wish you the best but I think we both know
You had it, you had it but you let it go
