A single red rose and a table for two A nice chardonay and an ocean view Ships comin in and stars comin out We sat and we talked till the place closed down Then we took a long walk down on the beach Her in that white dress and her bare feet We stopped and we watched the lighthouse light And pulled her close and I held on tight And I said to myself It doesnt get better than this No it doesnt get better than this
And it did It did Whoa it did
Fastforeward to that next spring We were lookin for a preacher Pickin out rings Family comin in and friends comin out To that white church on the outskirts of town Me in that tux fightin butterflies Tears of joy in the mommas eyes Her daddy walkin her down the aisle He lifted that veil and I saw that smile And I said To myself It doesnt get better than this No it doesnt get better than this
But it did It did Oh it did
Just when I start thinkin it's as good as it can get This crazy life does somethin just to let me know I haven't seen anything yet
Nine months later nearly to the day There we were flyin down the interstate Car weavin in and car weavin out Through traffic runnin every red light in town Delivery room and the doctor comes in I'm right beside and shes squeezin my hand One more push and a baby cries Sweet little angel with his momma's eyes And I said To myself It doesnt get better than this No it doesnt get better than this
But it did It did Oh it did Yes it did
