The best of me

You think you've got the best of me 
When really nothings left of me
So will you settle with the rest of me
Even though even it's small
 
Sometimes I know I should leave you
But I look into you eyes
I'm filled will a self fulfilling greed I despise
And I can't deny myself your love
If there's someone above
It's them who deserves you
I should just be here to serve you
 
But I'm not 
That's not me
I wish I could let it go and just be
But when a rock settles with an angel
It's hard to understand 
And not want to stand
Up and run away
Because life's to good for you to stay
 
So I hope the tears of heart strings will serenade yours as we wander aimlessly towards oblivion
 
That's too dramatic though
 
Maybe I won't always be there to hold your hand or open the door
 
But at least I'll love you forever
