THE BEST FOR LAST

(written by Kenneth Cope)

 

Tommy’s into trouble, somethin’s goin’ down

Ronnie’s right behind him headin’ out of bounds

Looks like they’re throwin’ in the towel

 

They’ve gathered up an army and don’t intend to hide

They’re comin’ by to turn you, take ya for a ride

They no longer think it’s worth the fight

But so many wrongs don’t make a right

Besides, you’re wanting heaven on your side

So

 

CHORUS:

Don’t let up, don’t give in

Try to hang tough

You can’t let them get you

(Can’t do that)

Make your mind up to do what He asks

You’ve got what it takes

So you were saved for the last

 

You hope you have the courage to steer from the wrong

But you’re scared of the pressure

You fear you’re gonna fall

You want to do what you’ve been taught

You’re set on givin’ it your all

But what if you’re backed against a wall?

Well…

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

Heaven is dependin’ on you

To stand up out in front

You’re the ones who’ve come to lead the way

And that’s a lot to ask of anyone

But you’re not just anyone

 

REPEAT CHORUS
