The Best Is Yet to Come (feat. Count Basie and His Orchestra)

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

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

The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?

Best is yet to come, come the day you're mine

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

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

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
