lyrics

I might be what you want, Babe
But I can’t be what you need
I could give it my best shot
But it won’t be the best of me

I might be what you like lately
You might like what you see
I could give it my best shot
But it won’t be the best of me

Well, there was a time
When I had enough
Oh, I could give you the world with love
And I can’t explain
When everything changed
Just know it won’t be enough

I can see what you want, Babe
But you won’t find it in me
I could give you my best shot
But it’s not who I wanna be

I might be what you like, lately
You might think that I’m free
I could give it my time, Babe
But you can’t have the rest of me

Well, there was a time
When I had enough
Oh, I could give you the world with love
And I can’t explain
When everything changed
Just know it won’t be enough

I might be what you want, Babe
But I can’t be what you need
I could give it my best shot
But you’d just end up hating me

I might be what you like, lately
But you won’t like what you see
I could give you my best shot
But it won’t be the best of me

I could give you my best shot
But it won’t be the best of me

No, no, I can’t give you my best shot
Cause he still has the rest of me
