The Best I Ever Had - The Swellers lyrics

It was a young and angry summer A song that changed my mind I heard it on the radio And if everyone else heard this They wouldn't be so sad It was the best I ever had It was the best I ever had I remember April '94 September '96 And every day of '99 (all of '99) Whether I waited for those records Or helped Seattle cry It was the best I ever had And I know we'll never die Yeah we were right about it We'd be lost without it Yeah what could ever take that? I miss it too And I miss the songs we knew And if I could go back I'd do it all again It was the best I ever had While the world was waking up and Putting on their suits I was planning my escape And when I had that conversation With my mom and dad I said I'm never looking back It was the best I ever had And they were wrong about us We showed them not to doubt us Yeah what could ever take that? I miss it too And I miss the songs we knew And if I could go back I'd do it all again It was the best I ever had I'd do it all again I've been everywhere now Searching far and wide But she was down the street She looked just like an angel Flying down to me But I was underground Where the devil comes to feed And everything felt so right I could show it to do wrong But she taught me everything And I don't know where she is now But I'll never forget She was the best I ever had Or ever will again The best I ever had And if everyone else heard this They wouldn't be so sad It was the best I ever had
