you are the best thing, that's ever been mine..

you were in college working part time waiting tables
left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of falling
wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "can you believe it?
as we’re lying on the couch?"
the moment I can see it.
yes, yes, I can see it now.

do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?
you put your arm around me for the first time.
you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter.
you are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

flash forward and we’re taking on the world together,
and there’s a drawer of my things at your place.
you learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded,
you say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.

but we got bills to pay,
we got nothing figured out,
when it was hard to take,
yes, yes, this is what I thought about.

do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
you put your arm around me for the first time
you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
you are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

do you remember all the city lights on the water?
you saw me start to believe for the first time
you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
you are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

and I remember that fight
2:30 AM
as everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
braced myself for the "Goodbye"
‘cause that’s all I’ve ever known
then you took me by surprise
you said, "I’ll never leave you alone."

you said,
"I remember how we felt sitting by the water
and every time I look at you, it’s like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter
she is the best thing that’s ever been mine."

hold on, make it last
hold on, never turn back

you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
you are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
yes yes, I can see it now.

:')

if you are wondering why am I posted these videos, well..

about that "hold you down" below, I fell in love with that song since I was on junior high school.
about 13 or 14 years old. I saw the video and I was like "I will treat my future boyfriend just like that". lol. but for real, that's what I was thinking about.
I mean, I never really care how the boys will treat me, but I'll try to be there when they need me.
some of the boys treat me sooooo bad just because I am fat. and dark. and you know what? it makes me like black man. because they will never treat me bad because I am dark. :)
back to the topic, I just want to tell you, readers, that whenever you love someone, don't think about yourself. because if you do that and he didn't treat you right, you won't treat him right too.
me myself, every time I feel like giving up, I think about everything I go through. so then, I won't give up. ;)
you know sometimes we need to work hard for just one relationship. and we are the ones who decided which one worth to fighting for.
well, sometimes, I get hurt. but I don't mind (and I start used to it), because for me, the main thing is I love him and I'll do the best that I can.

that's for the first video below.
now let's talk about this video up there.
:))
hmm. what am I supposed to tell? I just like the story in this video.
I want to think that not all boys have the same characters, but I don't know yet.
I just hope and learn to believe that they don't have same characters.
that's it. about the title of this post, I love the sentence. :D
and, I just really hope that he'll be the best thing that's ever been mine. :)

04:32 pm.
and you, you readers, are the best unknown friends that's ever been mine. :)
love you.
