Blues Traveler - The Best Part lyrics

Music & lyrics: john popper Well what do you know here we are again Been a long time i can't remember when Well i wrote another one and i guess who it's for Don't mind if i 'm embarra**ed i can't take it anymore You know i travel the world but i don't go no place And i got you to blame and the smile on your face You know i look in your eyes i see a part of me there So excuse my directness, but i just don't care What i think i'm talking about is a last ditch chance Don't care about the likelihood or circumstance It seems i am still here and i am waiting for you And i've no reason no time and an excellent view Of your eyes in my head and it's k**ing me But the possibilities are thrilling me So i guess i'll sit right here with nothing better to do And to top it all of you know the best part is... I'm gonna let you on in on a big surprise My heart is where the eagle flies Yeah i'm the master of my destiny That's why i need you right here with me You see i've come to learn that without you around I might as well be standing on the ground And with you with me and with me with you There's not a goddamn thing thar we could not do I'm not talking about us never being alone I'm just suggesting we make the world our home You've got to fly free and so do i And this way we'd never need to say good-bye But instead things like "see you soon" And "explore and play" And "the one you love is not far away" "but safe in your heart to see you through" And to top it all of you know the best part is that i I'm gonna take you take you by the hand You know even general custer had to make a stand I'll drop in from the skies or i'll move in slow But there's so damn much that i want you to know So take a look around you tell me what do you see? Then take those eyes and take a look at me You know you see things that others don't So if you think i'll go away, i won't You see my engine's blown and it is time to punt And there's an element of danger pulling off this stunt But the survey says that i don't seem to mind And you're the adventure i'm trying to find There's a whole lot of things that other people have said But i don't care if i'm correct or if it's all in my head So damn the torpedoes and co*k a doodle-doo! And to top it all of you know the best part is... That i love you I'm singing i love you Please, i'm down on my knees In the north and the south and the east and the west Make it the very, very, very Best best part best part
