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
