The Best Of You

The best of you is wonderful
The rest of you so terrible
The best of you is wonderful
(x2)

I miss having you around
Aggressive and ninety pounds
But after an hour or so
I wait, wanting you to go
To where a thought's left alone
In ventures through icy zones

The best of you is wonderful
The rest of you so terrible
The best of you is wonderful

You've done it for me again
And frankly, I'm stirred again
With mouthfuls of sour grapes
I try telling mirrored shapes
Perhaps for a little while
A war's on in Israel
A citizen's feeling ill
A stain on a gorgeous dress
Bless me, bless you

Just in time
I found you out just in time
You showed signs you're leaving me
Count to nine
The best of you has always been wonderful
The rest of you has always been terrible
Well, kind of, well

The best of you is wonderful
The rest of you so terrible
The best of you is wonderful

Of letters I've kept and read
The one that you sent me bled
At edges, at odds with sense
And still I sit on this fence
Perhaps for a little while
Knock out! I'm on the floor
Knock out another door
I'll never stay in your way
All you have to do is say

Just in time
I found you out just in time
You showed signs you're leaving me
Count to nine
The best of you has always been wonderful
The rest of you has always been terrible
Well, kind of, well

The best of you
The rest of you
The best of you
What's left of you
