The Best

[Intro]

(One, two, three, four)

This next song represents all my sheros, Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris

Ann and Nancy Wilson, Bonnie Raitt, Aretha Franklin

All these women who inspired me to be myself

Being unique is lonely

But if there's anybody out there who ever taught me to hang on

I went and saw her on her last concert tour

She was sixty years old

Living proof that it's not about age

It's about attitude

[Verse 1]

I call you when I need ya and my heart's on fire

You come to me, come to me wild and wired

Mm, you come to me

Give me everything I need

[Verse 2]

You give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams

Speak the language of love like you know what it means

Ooh, and it can't be wrong

Take my heart and make it strong, babe

[Chorus]

You're simply the best

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

Anyone I've ever met

I'm stuck on your heart, babe

I hang on every word you say

Tear us apart, no, no

Baby, I would rather be dead

[Verse 2]

In your heart, I see the start of every night and every day

In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away (Oh, yeah)

Just as long as I'm here in your arms, I could be in no better place

[Chorus]

You're simply the best

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

Anyone I've ever met

I'm stuck on your heart, babe

I hang on every word you say

Tear us apart, no, no

Baby, I would rather be dead

[Bridge]

Each time you leave me, I start losing control

You're walking away with my heart and my soul

I can feel you even when I'm alone

Oh, baby, don't let go

[Interlude]

Oh

Woo

You know what I think?

[Chorus]

You're simply the best, woo

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

Anyone I've ever met

I'm stuck on your heart, babe

Go Vicki

I hang on every word you say

Tear us apart, no, no, no

Baby, I would rather be dead

Ooh, you're the best

[Outro]

Yes, you are (Ooh)

Thank you very much everybody

I see you up there with binoculars

I'm not sure what you're looking for

It's not perfect, but it's real, honey, haha

I haven't uh, recorded this next song yet, but I felt like singing it tonight because, um, last year I got married and I um

Yeah, it's a miracle, believe me

What you laughing for?

You, you don't know the pain

Ooh, but I, uh, sorry, I, uh, have been integrating Zack, my bonus child

Um, with Elijah and Grace

And um, I can travel the world and run a business and be global, but being a parent has been the hardest job I've ever loved

And uh, I take a lot of time outs, don't I?

It's necessary, Elijah

Well, this next song, um, I think more than anything, a Grammy or even another number one, um

What I want is what's in this song and um, I'm gonna record it, but I wanted to share it with you guys

'Cause after twenty years, you know you f—, you try to fall in love all over again in your relationships or with your work

It's hard to maintain your passion

And you have to work at it, and um, when I heard this next song, it gave me a reason to continue to sing

And um, haha

Getting back to why I got in this business in the first place is just to sing

Pray for us because um, running a career and a family is um, they say the word balan—, balanced

I fall into bed and count the things I didn't do sometimes rather than celebrate the things I do, and um, mm

But thank you, um, for loving me, even when I'm not number one

You know
