The Best Thing Lyrics - Singles - Carly Simon

(Carly Simon) 

 

I was his foreigner 

And he was mine. 

We ate on terraces 

And drank the cheapest wine. 

And he believed in me 

Down by the serpentine. 

How was I to know 

it was the best thing 

To come along for a long time. 

 

I turned the page 

And saw three children with smiles. 

I looked to see 

What I could make of the youngest child. 

And as she blew the candles out 

She turned five. 

How was I to know 

It was the best thing 

To come along for a long time.

What do the people at the end of the world do 

About time? What about time? 

Their secret sleeps with me.
