 Struggling with Best Work? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

After the fall things will never be the same
How in the world can anyone love again?

Some of my best work was you 
I wish you were here right now
But I still don't want to know if you're moving on

I never dreamed about you
When we were never far apart
And now that I'm without you
You're here all through the night

Some of my best work was you
I wish you were here right now
I would ride the ups and downs
Be a man and get my feet back on the ground
Some of my best work
Some of my best work
My best work was you
But I still don't want to know if you're moving on

There's no lovers up above
No lovers only love
