The Best That I Can Do

​

A raindrop's never lonely.

It's going to reach the ground.

I cry. Wish I was the rain.

A river's never lonely.

It's going to reach the sea.

I watch. I call your name.

I'm blue. It's the best that I can do.

​

You left me in the evening.

I walked up to the bridge.

I stopped and wrote this song.

I'd walk across the desert.

I'd swim across the sea.

I'd fly if it would bring you home.

I'm blue. It's the best that I can do.

​

Insurmountable the physics of love.

We try. We try. It's never enough.

Inescapable the river of loss.

We can't go back. We can't get across.

​

Starlight's made for wishess.

Moonlight's made for dreams.

I wait where the streetlights end.

For me you were the brightest.

I hope you never fade.

Just wish we could start again.

I'm blue. It's the best that I can do.
