The Best Today Lyrics

by Keaton Henson

Stuck in a metal tube, I sit and stare at you
You seem to look through me, I wonder what you see
I still have two stations yet, counting the one that we just left
I wish I could stay with you, and ask you what you do
I figure you love to read, don't look for the faults like me
And probably love the sun, but think you're the only one

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e107402-keaton_henson~the_best_today_lyrics.html ]
And I wish I could wake at dawn
To see you without makeup on
Wish I had the guts to say
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today

I feel I know your smile, like I saw it when I was a child
Though today you just frown and read, your eyes flicker perfectly
Rush-hour crush surrounds, reminds me that we're still in town
I think of a time when I sat and watched a stranger cry

I wish I could wake at dawn
To see you without makeup on
Wish I had the guts to say
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today

As I get off the train, look back to see you through the frame
A man sits and blocks my view, and then I forget you
