"You're The Best Thing" lyrics

"You're The Best Thing"

I could be discontent and chase the rainbow's end
I might win much more but lose all that is mine
I could be a lot but I know I'm not
I'm content just with the riches that you bring
I might shoot to win and commit the sin
Of wanting more than I've already got
I could runaway but I'd rather stay
In the warmth of your smile lighting up my day
The one that makes me say, hey

Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

I might be a king and steal my peoples' things
But I don't go for that power crazy way
All that I could rule I don't check for fools
All that I need is to be left to live my way
Say listen what I say

Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world, hey
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

Listen to what I say

Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

I could chase around for nothing to be found
But why look for something that is never there
I may get it wrong sometimes but I'll come back in style
For I realise your love means more than anything
The song you make me sing, yeah

Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
Now don't go, I said don't go, no no don't go away
