Just a small town girl in the city lights
  The best was yet to come
  Then lonely days turned to endless nights
  The best was yet to come
    How were you to know
  That you would be the lucky one
  Ain't it funny how time flies
  When the best is yet to come
    You can cry yourself to sleep at night
  You can't change the things you've done
  You had it there then it slipped away
  Yeah you left the song unsung
    Even through your tears
  I never saw you come undone
  What's so good about goodbye
  When the best was yet to come
    I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
  When you were and livin' in a dream
  In the moment that it takes
  You find you made your first mistake
  Like the setting sun...
  You turn around it's gone
    Just a small town girl who had it made
  Or so the story goes
  She had it there then it slipped
  Oh - how was she to know
    Even through her tears
  I never saw her come undone
  Ain't it funny how time flies
  When the best is yet to come
  What's so good about goodbye
  When the best was yet to come
