Songtext von The Best of Me

We came from nothing And worked out way up to everything Our family and friends saw us As our heads grow tal Taller than the trees And now you think you’re above of evrything You did just what you knew what not to do You let it go to your head You did the things you said we’d never do And now you’ve thrown it all away For the things you’ve gained You said: “This is not how it was supposed to be The fame has got the best of me This wasn’t in the dream Somethings are never as they seem I’m not who you want me to be These things are never changing The fame has got the best of me” And now you’re something Something you should not have become And everyone, they saw you ‘Cause your head’s grown tall Taller than the city In which you looked down on everything You did just what you knew what not to do You let it go to your head You did the things you said we’d never do And now you’ve thrown it all away For the things you’ve gained You said: “This is not how it was supposed to be The fame has got the best of me This wasn’t in the dream Somethings are never as they seem I’m not who you want me to be These things are never changing The fame has got the best of me” (You let it go to your head) You said: “This is not how it was supposed to be The fame has got the best of me This wasn’t in the dream Somethings are never as they seem I’m not who you want me to be These things are never changing The fame has got the best of me”
