about

‘Best of Me’, the second single from the talented singer & songwriter, contrasts markedly with her dark politically themed debut and proves she does have a poetic side. Whilst still founded in the same organic roots sound, this much lighter track has strong alt-folk elements and hinges on Lucille's memorable vocals and the melodic interplay of Lucille's and Jeff Lang's acoustic guitars. With Ben Franz on pedal steel this song is rounded out to have some hallmarks of a delicate, romantic ballad. Ostensibly a vulnerable reflection on lost connection, this song confirms that regardless of the outcome, there is ultimate strength in knowing one gave one's best.

lyrics

Best of Me - Lyrics

I don’t know
If these past days have meant the same to you
As they have to me

I don’t know
If the visions, dreams, dancing in my mind
Are what you see

But I’ll say it now
I’ll say it loud
Come what may my dear
I know I gave
The best of me

Do the numbers
The math will never work
The answers float in the sky
But I sing
To see the spark light up your eyes
And set you on fire

So I’ll say it now
I’ll say it loud
Come what may my dear
I know I gave
The best of me
Should the crossroads come
Should you go alone
Come what may my dear
I know I gave
The best of me

In life, baby, life
In time, darling, time
In life, baby, life
Say

Say it now
Say it loud
Come what may my dear
I know I gave
The best of me
Should the crossroads come
Should you go alone
Let me always say
I know I gave
The best of me
