Dick Curless - Best Is Yet To Come lyrics

The calendar said 30th day of June Sinatra had the nation's No 1 tune The Yanks let the American Leauge by a country mile And I walked the floor as she gave birth to our child And when I thanked her for our first son She just smiled and said the best is yet to come I don't guess I've ever seen her cry She saved money when my salvary wouldn't get us by It wasn't very long just a couple of years it seemed We saved enough to pay down on a five-room dream And when I thanked her for all she'd done She just smiled and said the best is yet to come Ricky's away to school he's studying law Terry was voted Queen of the prom that fall We worked all winter with Gray but there was no doubt Who was the proudest one when he became an Eagle Scout And when I thanked her for all she'd done She just smiled and said the best is yet to come The calendar says first day of June And the paper reads man has walked on the room We're sitting here just waiting alone As we realize our lives are almost gone So we thanked our Lord for all he'd done And he said children the best is yet to come
