Vertical Horizon Picture
The acoustic rock band Vertical Horizon was formed in 1990 by Georgetown University undergrads Matthew Scannell and Keith Kane; after graduation in 1991 the duo relocated to Boston and, in 1992, self-released their debut album There and Back Again. There and Back Again was recorded in Matt's old high school over a period of a few days, and Matt and Keith together played all the instruments appearing on the album, though they both mostly played acoustic guitar. Both also contributed to writing all the songs, and both sang. Matt and Keith toured for several years after this, mostly appearing with similar bands such as Jackopierce. By 1995, they were ready to record again.

Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning) Lyrics

Vertical Horizon

* So you sailed away, into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay, love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same now, I just say your name now
** But it's not so bad, you're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back, you're just the best I ever had
So you stole my world, now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl, leaves me down and lonely
Send it in a letter, make yourself feel better
[Repeat **]
And it may take some time to patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I run away and hide
And I may find in time that you were always right, you're always right
[Repeat *]
What was it you wanted, could it be I'm haunted
But it's not so bad, you're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back, you're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever
