I Wish You the Best

She holds out a pencil, draws a picture from a photograph

The lines are crisp and clean, she draws the things that she has seen

You don't want to wait forever, so talk to him tonight

I know you're so clever, so go and live your life

And all the times we've loved, and all the hearts that break

And all the times we've felt, it sets us up to sail

You were light-struck, full of knowing, it was cold and really snowing

Last time that you were here, you were younger and had no fear

And now you're a little bit older, a little wiser, very sober
