Lyrics Carole King

Carole King

The Best Is Yet to Come

Hard times, hand to mouth, down and out

All those hard times

But we've seen the seasons turning

As we weathered every storm

And the climate of our loving

Is so tender and so warm

And the best is yet to come

This is only the beginning

And we've only just begun

To realize the best is yet to come

Heartache, more or less useless

All the heartache

But when the flood of sudden tears came down

We smiled and stood our ground

And the laughter we'd been counting on

It finally came around

And the best is yet to come

And it's getting so much better

Than anything I've known

And I know oh, yes, the best is yet to come
