The Best Thing For You
( Would Be Me )
I only want what's the best thing for
you,
and the best thing for you would be me.
I've been convinced after
thinking it through,
that the best thing for you would be me.
Everyday to myself I say,
point the
way, what will it be?
I ask myself, what's the best thing for you?
And
myself and I seem to agree,
that the best thing for you would be me.
