Where do I start, lying on a blanket underneath the stars With your head on my chest I always liked that best I hate how time flies I still think back sometimes 'Bout your lips on my neck I always liked that best That time we took a ride Ended up down by the riverside Soft touch, wet kiss I always liked that best I like the way you used to hold me I like the way you came to know me Ya came to know me well, well, well Falling to sleep Wearing your shirt 'cause it smelled so sweet Who could forget I always liked that best Or loosing my heart Everytime ya sing to me on your guitar Lady in Red I always liked that best I like the way you used to hold me I like the way you came to know me Ya came to know me well, well, well I could go on So many things I miss now that you're gone Your love, oh yes I always liked that best
