The Best Thing Lyrics by Hannah May Allison

The Best Thing

2014

[Verse 1]
I was hearing around
People like to talk in this small town
You were stupid enough
To think that the word would never get out
[Pre-Chorus]
When I think of how we used to be
All I think of is how it got ugly
[Chorus]
And the best thing I did was leave
Oh how I was wrong
To think that you loved me
What I need
You just brought me down
All the goodbyes
Led to more fighting
And the good times, they're long gone
And the best thing I did was leave
[Verse 2]
You said no one could replace me
Oh but baby I knew my facts
When I walked out of your front door that night
Never once looked back
[Pre-Chorus]
When I think of how we used to be
All I think of is trouble I don't need
[Chorus]
And the best thing I did was leave
Oh how I was wrong
To think that you loved me
What I need
You just brought me down
All the goodbyes
Led to more fighting
And the good times, they're long gone
And the best thing I did was leave
Trusting myself to know it's time that I move on
(And it was a leap)
Being strong enough to be on my own
(And it was a leap)
And all those days where I feel so alone
I'll know nothing felt lonelier than with you
And the best thing, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the best thing, yeah, yeah, yeah
And it was a leap, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the best thing I did was leave
