"The Best Thing" lyrics

I never thought it would come to this
I never thought I would let you down
Wish I was just overthinking again
But I know that I can't keep telling myself
That it's all just in my head
Can you pencil me in so we can talk
One more time before we end?
Say goodbye to it all

It's the best thing for me
I'll be hurting, and I'll miss you
But I know it's the best thing for me
And the worst is that I have to let you go
It's the best thing for me

I feel my pulse beating in my head
It's written all over your face
I'm scared of the words that we need to say
But I know, and you know it was over before it began

Is it all just in my head?
I'm glad that we took this time to talk
One more time before we end
Say goodbye to it all

It's the best thing for me
I'll be hurting, and I'll miss you
But I know it's the best thing for me
And the worst is that I have to be alone
It's the best thing for me
It's devastating to say no to something good
It's the best thing for us

Mmm, ooh...

Cause when I said I loved you
Part of me knew I was lying
And I was lying to myself too
I thought maybe if I convinced myself it would convince you
But now I have to tell you the truth
And I know it'll hurt, but

It's the best thing for me
And I'm hurting, and I miss you
But I know it's the best thing for me
And the worst is that I have to be alone
It's the best thing for me
It's devastating to say no to something good
It's the best thing for us

Mmm...
