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
|
The 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 that warmup's underway
|
wait till our lips have met
|
Wait till you see
|
that sunshine day
|
you ain't seen nothin' yet
|
The best is yet to come and babe
|
won't that be fine
|
The best is yet to come
|
come the day that 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 ripe
|
for these arms to surround
|
You think you've
|
flown before but honey
|
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 nothin' like it here
|
The best is yet to come and babe
|
won't that be fine
|
The best is yet to come
|
come the day that you're mine
|
Come the day your mine
|
The best is yet to come and babe
|
The best is yet to come and babe
|
Come the day your mine
|
Come the day your mine
|
