Lirieke: One Less Reason. All That's Best In You.

Album: A Lifetime Burning

?Ok?This is all that?s best in you, a song for Elizabeth?

You?ve grown so much, you?ve come so far
I never thought we?d end up here
You know I?ve seen this picture before
Reminds me of when you were home

Sometimes you?re all I see
Sometimes you?re all I feel

Wanted to tell you goodbye
And know that you?re safe
Now that the pain is gone,
The love remains
Though all my faults turn out to be so true
I couldn?t see?
All that was best in you
All that was best in you

Worked so hard it broke your heart
Robbed you of your smile that would save the world
A friend now more for a friend I lost
A friend that never left me unsure
I am sure


Wanted to tell you I lied
Oh, I made mistakes
And when I failed in life it was you I blamed
Though all my faces you could see right through
I couldn?t see?
All that was best in you

You are my hope (I?m giving in)
You are the ink under my skin
You are the day that I awake
You?d be the only chance I?d take
All I am and was before
The things I love and I adore
My handful of hope and a little more

Wanted to tell you I tried
To make it ok
With just one letter gone I lost the name
Of that little boy smiling back at you
He couldn?t see all that was best in you.

?That?s it?
