| I remember back when we were young
|
| running through the grass in the summer sun
|
| laughing in the dark as the stars burned on
|
| heartbeat racing to the radio songs
|
| Does he love me or does he not
|
| lie awake at night while I think these thoughts
|
| wait for you to kiss me my palms burned hot
|
| tried to catch my breath but the butterflies fought
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| it doesn’t get better than this
|
| and I know no matter where I go
|
| I can shine this light I can let it show
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| it doesn’t get better than this
|
| We can fast forward five more years
|
| past the awkward stage and the bitter tears
|
| thought I would forget you but it’s still so clear
|
| baby I’m not gonna lie
|
| I can go right back to those days
|
| salt on my lips and the games we’d play
|
| gonna do my best now and try to be brave
|
| you make a good girl want to misbehave
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| it doesn’t get better than this
|
| and I know no matter where I go
|
| I can shine this light I can let it show
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| it doesn’t get better than this
|
| So I say we take the long road
|
| ‘cause we’ve got this whole life
|
| to be real and feel and to let go
|
| and to love what we got while it’s still in our sight
|
| don’t let it slip away
|
| don’t let it slip through your fingers
|
| good things are hard to find
|
| We got the world one more night
|
| forget about tomorrow let your star burn bright
|
| don’t let it slip through your fingers
|
| good things are hard to find |
