At Your Best
Secret Rendezvous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I feel what I feel, sometimes it′s hard to tell you so
You may not be in the mood to learn
What you think you know
There are times, when I find, you wanna keep yourself from me
When I don't have the strength, I′m just a mirror of what I see
But at your best, you are love
You're a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know
Naaaa ooooh, let me know
When you feel, oh what you feel, it's hard for me to understand
So many things have taken place, before this love affair began
But If you feel, oh like I feel, confusion can give way to doubt
For there are times when I fall short
Of what I say,
What I say I′m all about, all about
But at your best, you are love
You′re a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know
Hmm
Tell me what it is
Make believe, no need to make believe
Look beyond your own
Try to find another place for me
'Cause at your best, you are loved
You′re a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know




Haaaaaa oeeee
Let me know, let me know, let me know know know
