The Best
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What kind of love is the best kind of love?
The one above all the rest of the loves?
Grab a hat, a bat, a ball and a glove
It's the love that I feel for you.
What kind of day is the best kind of day?
Makes up for all the rest of the days?
The park, the backyard, I don't care where we play
As long as I'm with you.
You know I miss you deep inside.
I wish we could go outside
To have a catch or two...
What kind of place is the strange, scary place?
And who put these tears and this dirt on my face?
No matter the score or the count at the plate,
I'll still be swinging for you.
Cause I need you in my life,
I wish that we could go outside.
Just to have a catch or two,
Me and you.
What kind of love is the best kind of love?
The love above all the rest of the loves?
Take the ball, the hat, my bat and my glove
They're a whole lot of nothing with you.
And I'll be waiting here outside
Spring or fall, rain or shine
To have a catch or two. . .
Cause your kind of love is the best kind of love
The best that love could ever do
