Best I Ever Had
Just 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Just's song "Best I Ever Had" seem to describe a complicated and emotional relationship. The first verse suggests that someone is hiding or keeping something hidden, while the singer doesn't understand why they waited in the light. This could signify a person who tries to hide their true self or emotions but still wants to be seen or recognized. The singer expresses a longing to open up and carry the weight of the connection they have been waiting for all their life.


The chorus reveals conflicting emotions. The singer confesses that even though it feels bad when the person they're referring to walks away, they still consider them to be the best they have ever had. There is a sense of yearning and regret in these lines, as if the singer knows deep down that the relationship is not right for them. But despite this, there is a strong bond and attraction that keeps them hooked.


The second verse introduces a suffering that the singer endures, possibly due to the difficult nature of the relationship. They describe the other person's breath as lovely and addictive, suggesting that even the smallest things they do or say have a profound impact on the singer. They hold their sadness during cold nights, symbolizing a time of loneliness and reflection, and emphasize that they never forget that the other person was always right. This could indicate a sense of admiration or acknowledgement of the other person's importance in their life.


The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the conflicting emotions experienced by the singer. They struggle with the pain of the relationship ending or the person walking away, yet acknowledge that it feels right to have the person with them, even if it is just for a moment. The final line, "Rest in me tonight," can be seen as a plea for emotional solace or a desire for the other person to find peace within the singer's presence.


Overall, the lyrics suggest a complex relationship characterized by longing, inner conflict, and a deep connection that the singer can't fully escape. It conveys the bittersweet experience of being with someone who may not be right for them but still holds a significant place in their heart. The song captures the complicated nature of love, where even the best and worst moments can coexist.

Someone here is hiding, someone in the night
There is someone who is concealing their true self, someone who only reveals themselves during the darkness of night

I could never comprehend why you chose to reveal yourself in the brightness of day


Feeling like to carry, to open up and on
Feeling the need to bear the weight and to continue moving forward

And when you walk away, and the moment is wrong
When you depart, and the timing is inappropriate

But despite that, it feels incredibly right, find solace in me this night


Rest in me today
Seek comfort in me during the present day

And when you depart, find rest and solace in me today

When you leave, and the timing is inappropriate


But it feels so right, rest in me tonight
But despite that, it feels incredibly right, find solace in me this night


Rest in me tonight
Seek comfort in me during this night
