I can’t sing like Marvin Gaye no
And I can’t play that grand piano
I never was at the top of my class
I never threw no touchdown pass
I ain't got much past to stand on
'Cause I never planned on getting my hands on
No kind of cash or woman like you
That could last a whole life through
But now that you’re here
It seems so clear

Now I ain't got no southern mansion
And I ain't much good at slow dancing
I never swam the English channel
People they say I’m hard to handle
'Cause I’m like a candle in the wind
Where you ends where I begin
And I’ll never win but I’m good at losing
But thank the lord I’m good at choosing
'Cause now that we’re here
It seems so clear

When the lights go down and the music plays
I feel like a king that can sing for days
I know some times that we don’t always agree
They scream for more and the more I give
It takes a toll on the way we live
Please forgive me baby try and see
Yeah try and see
Please try and see
You get the best of me

I didn’t make no reservations
I didn’t plan no great vacation
'Cause I’ve been chasing raindrops falling
Running from love when it keeps calling
And I know you think I’m just playing the field
But let me show you girl what’s real
'Cause I’m all in like a crazy gambler
And though I don’t have all the answers
Since you’ve been here
It seems so clear

When the lights go down and the music plays
I feel like a king that can sing for days
I know some times that we don’t always agree
They scream for more and the more I give
It takes a toll on the life we live
Please forgive me baby try and see
Yeah try and see
Please try and see
You get the best of me

When the lights go down and the music played
I felt like a king that can sing for days
I know some times we did not always agree
They’d scream for more and the more I give
It took a toll on the way we live
But please remember baby when you thinking of me
When you think of me
Please try and see
You got the best of me
Best of me, best of me
You got the best of me
Darling see
You got the best of me
