Lyrics The Best Is Yet to Come - Ella Fitzgerald

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 it be fine?
You think you've seen the sun, but, you ain't seen it shine
Wait 'til the warm-up is underway, wait 'til our lips have met
Wait 'til you see that sunshine day, you ain't seen nothin' yet

The best is yet to come, and babe, won't it be fine?
The 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 'til your charms are right for these arms to surround
You think you've flown before, but you ain't left the ground
Wait 'til you're locked in my embrace, wait 'til I draw you near

Wait 'til you see that sunshine place, ain't nothin' 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 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 'til your charms are right for these arms to surround

You think you've flown before, but you ain't left the ground
Wait 'til you're locked in my embrace, wait 'til I draw you near
Wait 'til you see that sunshine place, there ain't nothin' 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 your mine
Come on the day your mine, come on the day your mine

The best is yet to come
