"Best of My Love" is a song written by Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and J.D. Souther. It was originally recorded by the Eagles (with Henley singing lead vocals), and was included on their 1974 album On the Border. The song became the band's first number 1 single. The single version of the song is shorter than the album version with minor edits throughout as well as the removal of the last repeat of "Here in my heart, I give you the best of my love" and an earlier fade-out than the album version's.
The song has been covered by John Lees of Barclay James Harvest fame, on his 1970s solo album Kes. It was also included on Rod Stewart's 2006 album Still the Same... Great Rock Classics of Our Time.
