Best for Last
Adele/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wait, do you see my heart on my sleeve?
It's been there for days on end and
It's been waiting for you to open up
Yours too baby, come on now
I'm trying to tell you just how
I'd like to hear the words roll out of your mouth finally
Say that it's always been me
That's made you feel the way you've never felt before
And I'm all you need and that you never want more
Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue
But you'd save the best for last
Like I'm the one for you

You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me
Oh just a filler in the space that happened to be free
How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me

Why is it every time I think I've tried my hardest
It turns out it ain't enough
You're still not mentioning love
What am I supposed to do to make you want me properly?
I'm taking these chances and getting nowhere
And though I'm trying my hardest you go back to her
And I think that I know things may never change
I'm still hoping one day I might hear you say

I make you feel the way you've never felt before
And I'm all you need and that you never want more
Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue
But you'd save the best for last
Like I'm the one for you

You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me
Oh just a filler in the space that happened to be free
How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me

But, despite the truth that I know
I find it hard to let go and give up on you
Seems I love the things you do
Like the meaner you treat me the more eager I am
To persist with this heartbreak and running around
And I will do until I'm finding myself you

And make you feel a way you've never felt before
And be all you need so that you never want more




And you'll say all of the right things without a clue
And you'll be the one for me and me the one for you

Overall Meaning

In Adele's "Best for Last," the lyrics paint a picture of a woman who is desperately in love with someone who is not reciprocating her feelings. The song is about her waiting for him to finally confess his love and for them to become a couple. She has been wearing her heart on her sleeve for days, but he hasn't noticed it yet. She longs to hear him say that she is the one for him, and that she has made him feel a way he's never felt before.


The song is structured in three verses, followed by a pre-chorus that expresses doubt, then a chorus that tells the story of the singer, and then another pre-chorus and chorus, with an instrumental bridge. The song starts off with her showing her vulnerability, and by the end, she resolves that she will be the one for him no matter what. The lyrics are emotional and raw, mirroring the heartfelt delivery of Adele's vocals.

@lotusflowers5469

I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell, you rose claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet

But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.

But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing gets better

'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win.

But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burn while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!

Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.

I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell something died...
'Cause I knew that was the last time
The last time, oh, oh!

Let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn

Let it burn
