"Best Of Me" lyrics

Sometimes you call and I know I shouldn't pick up
But we never really can find closure
Your fault my fault, cause you go to battle with your heart
And you want me to be a certain way and I'm not
I'm always trying to change for you
And that's not fair that you want me to
Even though I know we're both gonna hurt
Here's the truth

I'm not the best of me
When I'm with you
Even though we say I love you
We're not suppose to
You give me what I need
And I take it selfishly
Cause' I know forever with you is never gonna be
If we could start over get back to friends
Before we decided to label this
If I knew back then what I knew know
Wouldn't rush into this we would slow down
And the best of me would probably still be loving you

We've got history
So it's hard to break all the bad habits
Like you slippin out of your jacket right now
And saying that to you wanna stay
Saying that you'll meet me halfway

I'm not the best of me
When I'm with you
Even though we say I love you
We're not suppose to
You give me what I need
And I take it selfishly
Cause' I know forever with you is never gonna be
If we could start over get back to friends
Before we decided to label this
If I knew back then what I knew know
Wouldn't rush into this we would slow down
And the best of me would probably still be loving you

Sometimes we talk all night for hours
Sitting on the couch that use to be ours
And when we're hanging out I'm forgetting about
That honestly I'm not the best of me
That's not the best for you

If we could start over get back to friends before we decided to label this
If I knew back then what I knew know
Wouldn't rush into this we would slow down
We could be honest, never break promise
You know and I know that we can just live off of what ifs, but the truth is

I'm not the best of me
And that's not the best for you...
