Lyrics

THE BEST IS YET TO COME


I'll always remember that first day of winter
You were just out of high school and I was nineteen
I was scared half to death when I knelt down and gave you that ring

We got married June second at a small country wedding
Went away for a weekend to start a new life
I'll never forget the first time someone called you my wife
You were nervous that night in our room
I gave you a kiss and whispered to you

That the best is yet to come
Darlin' the best is yet to come
Every sunset reminds us
To chase new horizons
Our journey has only begun
And the best is yet to come

We were just getting started, found an apartment
Slaved and struggled to save every dime
I used to worry about how we would ever survive

Sometimes we'd argue, sometimes we'd cuddle
We both made mistakes, but girl how we tired
When I lost my way, Honey I'd let your love be my guide
You were my beacon of strength
You always said at the end of the day

That the best is yet to come
Darlin' the best is yet to come
Every sunset reminds us
To chase new horizons
Our journey has only begun
And the best is yet to come

She's such a beautiful daughter, with eyes like her mother
A gift sent from heaven, she's something to see
I counted my blessings tonight as we rocked her to sleep
It's such a wonderful life
I can't wait for the morning, let's turn out the light

That the best is yet to come
Darlin' the best is yet to come
Every sunset reminds us
To chase new horizons
Our journey has only begun
And the best is yet to come
