I get up (he gets up)
to see you wallow in defeat
i get down (he gets down)
with almost everybody i meet
except you......
And i fail to see why i should care?
that you
have had
36 years of pain
to share
So i did what i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me
oh i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me...yeah!
I get up (he gets up)
to see you look perpetually
i get down (he gets down)
to watch you fail spectacularly
oh boy!
And i fail to see why i should care?
that you
have had
37 years of pain
to share
So i did what i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me
oh i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me-e-e-e
(guitar solo)
Did what i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me
oh i did what i do...for you
you've got the best of me mama mama-a-a
