Doesn't Get Better Than This - Jess Penner

I remember back when we were young

running through the grass in the summer sun

laughing in the dark as the stars burned on

heartbeat racing to the radio songs

Does he love me or does he not

lie awake at night while I think these thoughts

wait for you to kiss me my palms burned hot

tried to catch my breath but the butterflies fought

It doesn’t get better than this

it doesn’t get better than this

and I know no matter where I go

I can shine this light I can let it show

It doesn’t get better than this

it doesn’t get better than this

We can fast forward five more years

past the awkward stage and the bitter tears

thought I would forget you but it’s still so clear

baby I’m not gonna lie

I can go right back to those days

salt on my lips and the games we’d play

gonna do my best now and try to be brave

you make a good girl want to misbehave

It doesn’t get better than this

it doesn’t get better than this

and I know no matter where I go

I can shine this light I can let it show

It doesn’t get better than this

it doesn’t get better than this

So I say we take the long road

‘cause we’ve got this whole life

to be real and feel and to let go

and to love what we got while it’s still in our sight

don’t let it slip away

don’t let it slip through your fingers

good things are hard to find

We got the world one more night

forget about tomorrow let your star burn bright

don’t let it slip through your fingers

good things are hard to find
