Best I Ever Had
J. Khan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someone here is hiding, someone in the night
But I never understood, just why you waited in the light
Feeling like to carry, to open up and on
Is the feeling that I waited for, my whole damn life when I see you

But it feels so bad, oh you're the best I ever had
And when you walk away, and the moment is wrong
But it feels so right, rest in me tonight

Suffer of hard things, everything men
Your lovely flavoured breath, I take away to hear again
I hold my sadness, in the cold cold night
I never did forget, that you were always right and I miss you

But it feels so bad, oh you're the best I ever had
And when you walk away, and the moment is wrong
But it feels so right, rest in me tonight

But it feels so bad, you're the best I ever had
And when you walk away, rest in me today

But it feels so bad, oh you're the best I ever had
And when you walk away, and the moment is wrong




But it feels so right, rest in me tonight
Rest in me tonight
