[Verse 1]
Pay now, pay, gotta pay, gotta pay
For the ones you love
For the ones you love
Pay now, pay, gotta pay, gotta pay
For the ones you love
Two to go but
One to stay, to prove
You're still whole enough to hold on to
Golden mean treads the space between
Trade the things you want
For the things you always known you need
[Chorus]
Had the best of a bad deal
The best of a good
The best of us both got the best out of you
Had the best of a wreck
The best of a race
Had the best of us both
Got the best of you yet
[Verse 2]
Draw a line between me and the sky
Between they and I
And that's where I'll lie, I'll lie
Draw a line between sea and sky
Between day and night
And I'll swear I saw
Just find the point when your eyes first [turned?] from mine
[Chorus x2]
Had the best of a bad deal
The best of a good
The best of us both got the best out of you
Had the best of a wreck
The best of a race
Had the best of us both
Got the best of you yet
Had the best of a bad deal
The best of a good
The best of us both got the best out of you
Had the best of a wreck
The best of a race
Had the best of us both
Got the best of you yet
[Verse 3/Outro]
Ruthie, godspeed, split the baby in two
More haste and less speed
This [low's no match for you?]
Ruthie, godspeed, split the baby in two
More haste and less speed
This road's [no match?] for you
