Giving You the Best That I Got Lyrics

(Anita Baker, Skip Scarborough & Randy Holland) Ain't there something I can give you In exchange for everything you give to me Read my mind and make me feel just fine When I think my peace of mind is out of reach The scales are sometimes unbalanced And you bear the weight of all that has to be I hope you see that you can lean on me And together we can calm a stormy sea We love so strong and so unselfishly And I tell you now that I made a vow I'm giving you the best that I got, baby Yes I tell you now that I made a vow I'm giving you the best that I got, honey Everybody's got opinions Bout the way they think our story's gonna end Some folks feel it's just a superficial thrill Everybody's gonna have to think again We love so strong and so unselfishly They don't bother me so I'm gonna keep on Giving you the best that I got, baby They don't bother me, said I'm gonna keep on Giving you the best that I got, listen baby Somebody understands me Somebody gave his heart to me I stumbled my whole life long Always on my own, now I'm home My weary mind is rested And I feel as if my home is in your arms Fears are all gone, I like the sound of your song And I think I want to sing it forever We love so strong and so unselfishly And I made a vow so I tell you now I'm giving you the best that I got, baby I bet everything on my wedding ring I'm giving you the best that I got, givin' it to you baby
