The Best Of Everything

Tom Petty · Southern Accents [1985]

She prob'ly works in a restaurant

That's what her momma did

But I don't know if she ever really

Could put up with it

Or maybe she sings in a nightclub

'Cause sometimes she used to sing

But I don't know if it ever

Amounted to anything



But listen honey



(Chorus)

Wherever you are tonight

I wish you the best of everything, in the world

And I hope you found

Whatever you were looking for



Yeah and it's over before you know it

It all goes by so fast

Yeah, the bad nights last forever

And the good nights don't ever seem to last

And man, we never had the real thing

But sometimes we used to kiss

Back when we didn't understand

What we were caught up in



(Chorus)



(Chorus)
