Lyrics

Words and music by Paul Weller © 1984, The David Geffen Company

I could be discontent

And chase the rainbow’s end

I might win much more but lose all that is mine

I could be a lot

But I know I’m not

I’m content just with the riches that you bring

I might shoot to win and commit the sin

Of wanting more than I’ve already got

I could run away

But I’d rather stay

In the warmth of your smile

Lighting up my day

The one that makes me say

You’re The Best Thing
That Ever Happened

To me or my World

You’re The Best Thing
That Ever Happened

So don’t go away

I might be a king

And tief my people’s things

But I don’t go in for that

Power crazy way

All that I could rule

But I don’t check for fools

All I need is to be left to live my way

So listen what I say

You’re The Best Thing
That Ever Happened
To me
or my World

You’re The Best Thing
That Ever Happened

So don’t go away

You’re the soul of me

You’re the best for me

Come and rock my dreams

CHORUS
