My Very Best - elbow

Well, give that girl my very best

Though it never made the grade

If it seems that it’s just not enough to love

Then love, lie down

And would you tell her

Not to talk as if I died

Though a tiny part just did

And would you tell her

I’m from a long line of survivors

And I’ll be swinging with the kids

So keep your sympathy

Don’t need the healing to start

You’ve gone, gone and made

A beautiful hole in my heart

In the corner of the room

In the room, we used to love

Of the love, we should say this

There were switches never flicked

Long away and far apart

That’s how forest fires start

Start again it felt like this

Fresh and simple as a kiss

I bounce these feelings off the moon

The echoes don’t come back

Keep your sympathy

Don’t need the healing to start

You’ve gone, gone and made

A beautiful hole in my heart

Of the love we should say this

There were, there were switches never flicked

Keep your sympathy

Don’t need the healing to start

You’ve gone, gone and made

A beautiful hole in my heart

Just keep your sympathy

Don’t need the healing to start

You’ve gone, gone and made

A beautiful hole in my heart

In my heart, in my heart, in my heart
