Mothers Favorite Child, Saeeda Wright - Best of Me Lyrics

Asking me to let you go
Is like asking me
To give up life
Might
Seem a bit dramatic to you
When it comes to his love
It's more than just a habit to me
You see
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably as he
Manipulated and told me
Nothing but lies
Seemed I was never enough
Cause every time I blinked my eyes
His body and his mind
Were
Always elsewhere
While I
Stayed home waitin for the phone to ring
Now it appears that I
I was the only one
Who cared a thing about us
I can't say why I
Let it happen to me
Time and time again
But I
Knew for sure it was the end
When I found my back was turned
He was makin' time
With the sister of a friend
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably
As he manipulated
And told me nothing but lies
Baby got the
Best of me
Baby got the
Best of me

Asking me to let you go
Is like asking me
To give up life
Might
Seem a bit dramatic to you
When it comes to his love
It's more than just a habit to me
You see
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably as he
Manipulated and told me
Nothing but lies
Seemed I was never enough
Cause every time I blinked my eyes
His body and his mind
Were
Always elsewhere
While I
Stayed home waitin for the phone to ring
Now it appears that I
I was the only one
Who cared a thing about us
I can't say why I
Let it happen to me
Time and time again
But I
Knew for sure it was the end
When I found my back was turned
He was makin' time
With the sister of a friend
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably
As he manipulated
And told me nothing but lies
Baby got the
Best of me
Baby got the
Best of me
