The Best Thing I Ever Gave You

[Verse 1]
All the cheap jewelry I bought you, every bottle of perfume
Do they still sit on the dresser on the right side of your room?
Does the handbag from that Christmas still hang behind the door?
Do you still keep all my letters somewhere in your bedside drawer?

[Chorus]
Well, judging by the photographs online
The best thing I ever gave you was goodbye
I keep waiting for the pictures of that new guy on one knee
I'm so happy that you're happy and I bet you'rе happy he's not me
I could have givеn you that ring, given you my only life
But the best thing I ever gave you was goodbye

[Verse 2]
Every vacation together, those late nights in Monterey
All my darkest secrets, they make me who I am today
The key to my front door and the password to my phone
My word I'd always be there but I left you all alone

[Chorus]
Well, judging by the photographs online
The best thing I ever gave you was goodbye
And I can tell, he's everything that I could never be
I'm so happy that you're happy and I bet you're happy he's not me
I could have given you that ring, given you my only life
But the best thing I ever gave you was goodbye

[Outro]
His hand around your waist, that sparkle in your eye
He gives you a feeling that one day I hope to find
While he's giving you the world and every star up in the sky
The best thing I ever gave you was goodbye
The best thing I ever gave you was goodbye
