I Still Wish the Very Best for You
Anne Murray · Let's Keep It That Way/New Kind of Feeling [Capito [2001]
You know I'm not much better with the phone
Day after day goes by and I still think of you
'Cause I still wish the very best for you.
Well, I've been hearing that you've got a baby
And that you're happy with somebody new
You an I both know sometimes these things don't work out right
I want you to know that I still wish the very best for you.
So don't you think because we're not together
That I won't wish the very best for you
Even though your love shines on some other
Baby, I want you to know that I still wish the very best for you.
So love and be loved by another
You don't have to feel we're going to lose
You are free to roam and rediscover
Someone who will share your ways with you...
