v.1
We said goodbye on a cold and stormy night
We were cryin' as the lightening filled up the sky
And thunder rolled with the crashing of our hearts
As we lingered there not wanting to part
v.2
We both knew our love was filled with lies
As the teardrops fell like the rain of the night
You can tell by the way we kissed good-bye
That once again we're telling ourselves a lie
(Chorus)
It's for the best, we can't keep going on like this
We've tried so hard but broke each others hearts
We've come to realize, there's only one regret
But its all been for the best
v.3
As the storm blows through I think about you
Of what I did, the lies hurt more than the truth
It's too late I can't go back, we're both to blame
My life without you won't be the same
Bridge:
As we wipe the tears away from our eyes
Our mistakes have caused us so much pain
We've only ourselves to blame...
(Chorus)
It's for the best, we can't keep going on like this
We've tried so hard but broke each others hearts
We've come to realize, there's only one regret
But its all been for the best
Outro:
To go our separate ways is for the best
