Best Is Yet To Come
Red Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Afraid it won't come round again
Afraid to move on
Wishing I could go back when
When everything was easier and meaningful to me
Wanting all we left behind
Like its the answer
An hour glass we can't rewind
Holding back the life that I've been at for so long

Can I find my way to you
And after all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
'Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

A photograph's still in my hands
Afraid to let it go
The minutes rain like grains of sand
And time is just a war that's stealing dreams from within
So come and take them back again

And after all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
'Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

I won't turn around
Let it all slip away
I'm never backing down
'Cause tomorrow's a new day
And everything can change

And after all that we've been through
And after all we left in pieces
I still believe our lives have just begun
'Cause now the past can be outrun
And I know you are the reason
I still believe the best is yet to come

I still believe the best is yet to come




The best is yet to come
I still believe the best is yet to come
