Lyrics Jake Owen - The Best I Can

"The Best I Can"

I’ve had dreams, crash and burn
I’ve learned lessons, I wish I never learned
And I’ve let love, turn to hate
And I hate I, made those mistakes

Forgiveness ain’t much different than salvation
And searchin for ‘em both will try your patience
Despite my good intentions and my best laid plans
All that’s outta my hands

So I’m just tryin to do the best I can
The best I can
I’m doing the best I can
I’m doing the best I can

I’ve found hope, and then I’ve lost it
I’m just like you
I’ve got ghosts, in my closet

I still don’t know, what I’m looking for
But I’ve got faith in,
Something more

Forgiveness ain’t much different than salvation
And searchin for ‘em both will try your patience
Despite my good intentions and my best laid plans
All that’s outta my hands

So I’m just tryin to do the best I can
The best I can
I’m doing the best I can
I’m doing the best I can

I can’t do
Anything about
Anything but
What I'm doing now

Yes I live with a lot of old regrets
But I’ve just gotta to keep on looking up ahead

I’m just tryin to do the best I can
The best I can
I’m doing the best I can
I’m doing the best I can
Yea, I’m just tryin to do the best I can
The best I can
The best I can
I’m doing the best I can
