Laura Branigan The Best Was Yet to Come lyrics

Just a small town girl in the city lights
The best was yet to come
Then lonely days turned to endless nights
The best was yet to come

How were you to know
That you would be the lucky one
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best was yet to come

You can cry yourself to sleep at night
You can't change the things you've done
You had it there then it slipped away
Oh you left the song unsung

Even through your tears
I never saw you come undone, oh
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come

I find myself thinkin' about yesterday

When you were here livin' in a dream
For the moment that it takes
You find you made your first mistake

Like the setting sun
You turn around it's gone
Just a small town girl had it made
So the story goes

She had it there then it slipped
Oh, how was she to know
Even through her tears
I never saw her come undone, no

Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best was yet to come, oh
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come
