From Brisbane, Australia to worldwide success, Messrs. Hayes and Jones were responsible for some of the most widely-known pop songs of the late 90's. Appropiately enough, given their Anne Rice-inspired name, Savage Garden veered between lush ballads ("Truly Madly Deeply", "I Knew I Loved You") and up-tempo dance numbers ("I Want You", "The Animal Song") with a deftness that put many of their contemporaries in the shade. Debut: In July of 1996, under Roadshow Music, the duo released their debut single "‎I Want You." The single was a hit in Australia and became the year's highest-selling by an Australian artist. The success of the single garnered much interest from many U.S.

The Best Thing Lyrics

Savage Garden

Never want to fly
Never want to leave
Never want to say what you mean to me
Never want to run
Frightened to believe
Youre the best thing about me
Sometimes I feel like this is only chemistry
Stuck in a maze searching for a way to
Shut down run around feel the ground beneath me
Youre so close where do you end where do I begin?
Always pushing and pulling
Sometimes sanity takes vacation time on me
Im in a daze stumbling bewildered
North of gravity head up in the stratosphere
You and I roller coaster riding love
Youre the center of adrenaline
And Im beginning to understand
Never want to fly
Never want to leave
Never want to say what you mean to me
Never want to run
Frightened to believe
Youre the best thing about me
Walk on broken glass make my way through fire
These are the things I would do for love
Farewell peace of mind kiss goodbye to reason
Up is down the impossible occurs each day
This intoxication thrills me
I only pray it doesnt kill me
Never want to fly
Never want to leave
Never want to say what you mean to me
Never want to run
Frightened to believe
Youre the best thing about me
Youre the center of adrenaline
And Im beginning to understand
You could be the best thing about me
Never want to fly
Never want to leave
Never want to say what you mean to me
Never want to run
Frightened to believe
Youre the best thing about me
You could be the best thing about me
What if youre the best thing about me?
