Best Is Yet To Come

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
