it did

Lyrics

a single red rose and a table for two, a nice chardonnay and an ocean view, ships comin in stars comin' out, we sat and we talked 'til the place closed down, then we took a long walk down on the beach, her in that white dress in her bare feet, we stopped and we watched the lighthouse light, i pulled her close and i held on tight, and i said, to myself, it doesn't get better than this, no it doesn't get better than this, and it did, it did, oh it did, fast forward to that next spring, we were lookin for a preacher pickin out rings, family comin in and friends comin out, to that little white church on the outskirts of town, me and that tux fightin butterflies, tears of joy in my mama's eyes, her daddy walkin her down that aisle, i lifted that veil and i saw that smile, and i said, to her, it doesn't get better than this, no it doesn't get better than this, and 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 her she's squeezin my hand, one more push and a baby cries, a sweet little angel with her mama's eyes, and i said, to my girls, it doesn't get better than this, no it doesn't get better than this, and it did, it did, oh it did, yes it did, a single red rose and a table for two, a nice chardonnay and an ocean view
