[Verse:] Please let me say from the start I don't pretend to be smart I just suggest what I think best Having your int'rest at heart [Refrain:] I only want what's the best thing for you And the best thing for you would be me I've been convinced after thinking it through That the best thing for you would be me Ev'ry day To myself I say Point the way What will it be I ask myself what's the best thing for you And myself and I seem to agree That the best thing for you would be me
