All The Best Lyrics

Cover art for All The Best lyrics by John Prine

I guess the song's pretty cut and dry; a relationship falls apart and while he wishes her all the best, it's painfully obvious that the experience has created a bitter cynicism with which he struggles.

Changing hearts like changing cars, dumping a Christmas tree once it's no longer useful; the feelings of a person who became obsolete without even realizing it.

Been down that road myself. It hurts.
