The Best Is Yet To Come
Written by Dennis DeYoung
Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung

What ya gonna do
Have a heart attack
When they greet you with a smile
Then stab you in the back

And where ya gonna run
What's left for you
When they take the best you got
And say it just won't do

Change your hairdo, change your name
Congratulations you're still the same

What ya gonna get by livin' in the past
Feedin' off your memories
As if they were your last
Take a look around ya
Tell me what you see
This world is bustin' out with opportunity

But nothin's easy
Not that counts
So if you want it
Keep on believin'
Keep on repeatin'

I'm starting over
I'm feelin' stronger
I do believe the best is yet to come

Tell me that you're angry
Tell me you're upset
But don't tell me you're givin' up
I'm doublin' all the bets

Baby if you lose
It ain't no shame
Olee olle ocean free
Just start a brand new game

Hold your head up
Don't give in
Check your heart rate
If you're still breathin'
Keep on repeatin'

I'm starting over
I'm feelin' stronger
I do believe the best is yet to come

Don't you run, don't you hide
Stay right here by my side
Don't breakdown, don't cry
Take my hand into the night
Baby it's alright
Run, runnin' to daylight
We'll keep on runnin'

I'm starting over
I'm feelin' stronger
I do believe the best is yet to come
