The Best Thing That Ever Has Happened

Stephen Sondheim

First, there's cocktails at the Cosden's
Hun, we've got fish to fry
Then, there's dinner at the Dodges', the reception at the Roosevelt's
And every party filled with millionaires who want
To build the biggest villa since the days of Ancient Rome
So what do you say we just stay home?

You are the best thing that ever has happened to me
You are
Alright then, one of the best things that's happened to me
You are
They say we all find love
I never bought it
I never thought it would happen to me
Who could foresee?
You are the god-damnd'est thing that has happened to me
Ever
When did I have this much happiness happen to me?
Never
I can't believe my luck
And all I can do
Is be the best thing that's happened to you

So what do you say we just stay home?
What do you say we just go out on the boat and get smashed
And make love on the beach and stare up at the moon?
You might just be the best thing that has happened to me
So far
Of course, not much ever really has happened to me
So far
I didn't much like love
I always fought it
I never thought it would happen like this
Give us a kiss
We might just be the best thing that has happened to us
Partner
Another moment like this might not happen to us
Lover
When all is said and done
I have to agree
You are the best thing that's happened to me
Who knew?
Who dreamed?
Beats me
