Lyrics
Since I've gone, someone else is in my place.
But in your eyes, do you still see my face?
It's no lie, my faith's put through the test,
I shared with you, Only The Best.
Can't forget the day, when my eyes were shown the door.
You turned to me, said "you don't want me no more".
It's no lie, your faith's put through the test,
You shared with me, Only The Best.
I lay awake at night, thinking how I done you wrong.
And because of my mistake, I've been away for far to long.
If I could take a chance, and be the man I used to be.
Me standing next to you and you stand next to me.
It's no lie, our faith's gone through the test,
We shared with each, Only The Best.
I lay awake at night, thinking how I did you wrong.
And because of my mistake, I've been away for far to long.
If I could take a chance, and be the man I used to be.
Me standing next to you and you stand next to me.
It's no lie, my faith put through the test,
I shared with you, Only The Best.
You shared with me, Only The Best
We Shared with each, Only The Best
