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   Yeah you left the song unsung      Even through your tears   I never saw you come undone   What's so good about goodbye   When the best was yet to come      I find myself thinkin' about yesterday   When you were here and livin' in a dream   In 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 time girl who had it made   Or so the story goes   She had it there then it slipped away   Oh - how was she to know      Even through her tears   I never saw her come undone   Ain't it funny how time flies   When the best was yet to come   What's so good about goodbye   When the best was yet to come
