I listen close
To your tiny heart
It beats so clear and so true
It gives me strength
It gives me will
It gives me reasons to continue
When I need some fixin'
When I need some maintenance
You're there to turn the screw
You are the best
No you are the bestest
Better than anything I deserve
You are the best
No you are the bestest
Better than anything in this world
You are the best
No you are the bestest
You're the bestest, baby
I'd given up
And I'd given in
Didn't think I'd ever feel no joy
I was a mess
And I was out of my tree
I was a sorrowful little boy
But then you picked me up
You gave me some lovin'
You fixed this broken ol' toy
