Best I Never Had

Goodbye's the only thing I ever knew how to say

Always had a heart that never knew how to stay

Leavin' never felt like I was runnin' away

As long as I found someone else

Late at night was everything that I understood

Missin' you would always end up feelin' so good

Comin' back, it never made me do what I should

I just sit and blame myself

Why was I itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad?

I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had

I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks

And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back

I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had

You were always just a little out of my league

Guess that I was wilder than you wanted to be

I tried to hide the devil that was hidin' in me

But you saw right through it all

Why was I itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad?

I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had

I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks

And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back

I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had

Never had your heart

Never had your love

And I never had a chance to tell you

Why was I itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad?

I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had

I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks

And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back

I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had
