Just a small town girl in the city lights The best was yet to come (C) 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 is 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 Yeah you left the song un - sung Even through your tears I never saw you come un - done What's so good about goodbye When the best was yet to come I find myself thinkin' about yesterday When you were and livin' in a dream In the moment that it takes You find you made your first mis - take Like the setting sun... You turn around it's go - o - one / Just a small town girl who had it made Or 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 un - done What's so good about goodbye When the best was yet to come What's so good about goodbye When the best was yet to come //
