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 (tender and so warm)

And the best is yet to come

This is only the beginning (the best is yet to come)

And we've only just begun to realise the best is yet to come

Heartache (heartache), more or less so useless

All the heartache (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 (finally came around)

And the best is yet to come

And it's getting so much better (the best is yet to come)

Than anything I've known

And I know, oh, yes

The best is yet to come

(The best is yet to come, the best is yet to come)
