The Best We Have
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.
Because I lose one or two it doesn't mean I'm losing
Winning a few doesn't mean I win
And if I'm talking to you it doesn't mean I'm falling
Wish I was falling in love with you
And if I do it again, I know I'm taking my chances
Put all my money on the queen of hearts
Talking to you. but I don't have any answers
Love is the best we have
Wish I was falling, wish I was falling in love with you
The more you look for the dream
The more it drives you crazy
Chasing a shadow of a dream it's true
If the music is right, I'll be the one who's dancing
Love to be dancing out there with you.
And if I'm losing my mind it doesn't mean I'm crazy
Losing my heart is going to set me free
Talking to you but I don't have any answers
Love is the best we have, love is the best we have
