And I did the best I could with what I had
When I first met you, I promised you the world
And it was all because you were my favorite girl
Pretty things like diamond rings
And all the things you never had
But I did the best I could with what I had
I know you wanted a mansion on the hill
A big fine car, a chauffeur at the wheel
But time passed on and things went wrong
And all you ever got was sad
But I did the best I could with what I had
And all I had was all the love in the world for one girl
And a promise to try harder, some way to get ahead
But the promises I made, I′ve broken and betrayed
But I did the best I could with what I had
Yes, I did the best I could with what I had
