The Best of Me

Oh my love, we've gotta save ourselves
If we wanna save the world
Don't give in to your hate when you
Know you can change.
It's hitting home and it feels so strange.

I wanna say those words but it's not that easy.
I smile but it doesn't make things right.
And it's hard when it's hurting all the time.
But I can't leave this thing behind.

You've gotta trust me and hold on.
We've gotta slow down baby.

'Cause we are still young but we are getting older.
Our hearts are still warm, but they are getting colder.
And this life is getting the best of me.
And I'm down on my knees.
Oh please, baby hold on.

Keep your head, up high.
Reach for me, I can't pretend when it's a lie.
Talk to me, when your low.
Confide in me, I promise I won't tell a soul.

And we can turn this corner, no it's not that easy.
But we're fools not to give it a try.
And it's hard when it's hurting all the time.
But I can't leave this thing behind.

You've gotta trust me and hold on.
We've gotta slow down baby.

'Cause we are still young but we are getting older.
Our hearts are still warm, but they are getting colder.
And this life is getting the best of me.
And I'm down on my knees.
Oh please, baby hold on.

When I see the stars above me.
Shining their lights down on my face.
I feel you, and now I know what I'm missing.

Hold on, we've gotta slow down baby.

'Cause we are still young but we are getting older.

Our hearts are still warm, but they are getting colder.
And this life is getting the best of me.
And I'm down on my knees.
Oh please, baby hold on.
