The Swellers Lyrics - Singles - The Best I Ever Had

It was a young and angry summer 

A song that changed my mind 

I heard it on the radio 

And if everyone else heard this 

They wouldn't be so sad 

It was the best I ever had 

It was the best I ever had 

I remember April '94 

September '96 

And every day of '99 (all of '99) 

Whether I waited for those records 

Or helped Seattle cry 

It was the best I ever had 

And I know we'll never die 

Yeah we were right about it 

We'd be lost without it 

Yeah what could ever take that? 

I miss it too 

And I miss the songs we knew 

And if I could go back 

I'd do it all again 

It was the best I ever had 

While the world was waking up and 

Putting on their suits 

I was planning my escape 

And when I had that conversation 

With my mom and dad 

I said I'm never looking back 

It was the best I ever had 

And they were wrong about us 

We showed them not to doubt us 

Yeah what could ever take that? 

I miss it too 

And I miss the songs we knew 

And if I could go back 

I'd do it all again 

It was the best I ever had 

I'd do it all again 

I've been everywhere now 

Searching far and wide 

But she was down the street 

She looked just like an angel 

Flying down to me 

But I was underground 

Where the devil comes to feed 

And everything felt so right 

I could show it to do wrong 

But she taught me everything 

And I don't know where she is now 

But I'll never forget 

She was the best I ever had 

Or ever will again 

The best I ever had 

And if everyone else heard this 

They wouldn't be so sad 

It was the best I ever had
