Lyrics
[Intro]
Out of the tree of life, I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything started to hum
Still it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come
[Verse 1]
Best is yet to come and, babe, won't that be fine?
You think you've seen the sun, but you ain't seen it shine
Wait till the warm up's under way
Wait till our lips have met
And wait till you see that sunshine day
You ain't seen nothing yet
[Verse 2]
The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
Best is yet to come, come the day you're mine
[Bridge]
Come the day you're mine
I'm gonna teach you to fly
We've only tasted the wine
We're gonna drain the cup dry
[Verse 3]
Wait till your charms are right for the arms to surround
You think you've flown before, but, baby, you ain't left the ground
Wait till you're locked in my embrace
Wait till I draw you near
Wait till you see that sunshine place
Ain't nothing like it here
[Outro]
The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
The best is yet to come, come the day that you're mine
Come the day you're mine
And you're gonna be mine
