Best Lasts Forever — The View

I feel like a sun without a sky Feel like a socket without an eye Feel like a house, but not a home Just a dog without a bone

How can you wink without an eye? Like a grievance, but with no cry A house, not a home, and I don't know why Just a pig without a sty

The best lasts forever. Ohh

Feel like a sail, but I've been slashed A vigilante that's been unmasked Feel like a raft, but not a ship Sinking on this south facing tip

I know that before when you answered the door I told you and the world to leave me

But the best lasts forever. Ohh Together again

Have you ever felt like a story untold A catwalk model that's growing old Hard to imagine what's more important The rainbow the pot or the gold

I know that before when you answered the door I told you and the world to leave me

Thinking about what it is that made you change Was it the quarks, the dosh or the dames When did I become so deranged And think of the time when blood ran through your veins When she looked as sweet as a candy cane As she looks through the window pane Through the window, pain and the rain I say it again and again The best lasts forever The best lasts forever

The best lasts forever. Ohh

I know that before when you answered the door I told you and the world to leave me

I've been on my knees on so many streets Not just the ones in Dundee Fell on my face, been a legless disgrace Ten thousand laughing at me, but still

The best lasts forever. Ohh
