I've been gone for so long now
Chasing everything that's new
I have forgotten how I got here

I have not forgotten you
We were just children with our eyes opening
You were all that i could see

You came close enough to know my heart beat but
Still not close enough for me


Through the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had
The only chance I wish I had to take

There was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow
I know now and I just cant forget

You're the best I never had

In this motel

Will pass midnight
When i'm bluer than a bruise
And you come drifting in through the half light

In your funny yellow shoes
And I hope that's you standing at my doorway
That's the scratchin of your key

And I hope this song i'm singing
Someday finds you
My letter to Elise


Through the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had

The only chance I wish I had to take
There was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow

I know now and I just cant forget
You're the best I never had
Nana Nanana

Best I never had
Nana Nanana
Best I never had.
