Best Behavior Lyrics by Ivers

2023

[Verse 1]
My momma says that I've got a rotten mouth
Says if I talk like that, no one will wanna stick around
Maybe she's right, but here you are for the tenth night in a row
But I like your mom too much to not go buy a bar of soap

I used to fall asleep unconscious without, before I closed my eyes
I was losing all my clarity and the lows between the highs
Tonight I won't, I swear to God
Now even that's a lie
But I'd break all my bad habits if it keeps you by my side

[Chorus]
I know you'd stay either way, but if it buys me another day
I'd drop it all, call it quits
Cause it sure as hell ain't worth it if you're gone
So I'm on my best behavior so you don't run

[Verse 2]
I had all the best intentions with the way I livе my life
But I couldn't want much more, I've always got you on my mind
Bе brand new and not look back, cause you still love all I lack
And I know that you aren't asking, but you're worth more than all that

[Bridge]
I just wanna see you in the snow
Kiss you through your blonde hair and your yellow coat
Oh, I know it's getting later, is it too early to say you're all I want?
So I'm on my best behavior even though

[Chorus]
You'd stay either way, but if it buys me another day
I'd drop it all, call it quits
Cause it sure as hell ain't worth it if you're gone
So I'm on my best behavior so you don't run

So I'm on my best behavior, hoping you'll let me stay for
Just another day before you're gone
