The Best Man

(альбом: This Diamond Ring - 1965)

At first it was just a game with us
You and I and my best friend
You were the girl we most admired
We both desired
So, one day we said, "May the best man win"

Next, when we knew that you must be
The girl that we'd been searching for
That was the day you had to choose
So, win or lose
We said once again, "May the best man win"

Now, here I stand
The best man, but only at your wedding
He'll slip the ring on your finger tonight
And I'll slip away and out of your life

At first it was just a game with us
You and I and my best friend
Now, here I stand
Just the best man

Now, here I stand
The best man, but only at your wedding
He'll slip the ring on your finger tonight
And I'll slip away and out of your life

At first it was just a game with us
You and I and my best friend
Now, here I stand
Just the best man
