You're the Best
Wet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I know is
When you hold me
I still feel lonely
Lonely when you hold me

All I know is
I can't focus
On these arms around me
Think of how you found me
Found me in those arms
So large and dark and holding on

All I know is
When you hold me
Are you thinking Rosalie
Or is she in me?
And all the rest

Well, baby, you're the best
We'll figure out the rest
And maybe it's a test
I think we'd better quit while we're ahead

All I know is
When we're sleeping
Our friends, they creep in
And all the rest

All I know is
You hardly know me
But you still owe me
And all the rest

Well, baby, you're the best
We'll figure out the rest




And maybe it's a test
I think we'd better quit while we're ahead

I met her tonight and she is the most humble, human like artist I've ever encountered. Makes me a mega fan that much more. I asked her for a handshake and she gave me a hug 💜💜💜
