(Verse 1)
I was born to a sweet Mother and Dad
They gave me all the love they had
Provided me with experiences
Some were good, some were bad
(Chorus)
The best is not behind me
No, the best is yet to come
I'm holding on to right now
Til my work here is done
(Verse 2)
I won the hearts of those in my life
Even have an adoring loving wife
She is there when I'm struggling
When I'm beat up and sad, she reminds
She reminds me that
(Chorus)
The best is not behind me
No, the best is yet to come
I'm holding on to right now
Til my work here is done
The best is not behind me
No, the best is yet to come
I'm holding on to right now
Til my work here is done
(Bridge)
When I get to where I want
And life's the greatest it'll ever be
I'll know the best is not behind
It's in heaven with my loved ones for eternity
(Verse 3)
When I'm fearless, on my death bed
See me joyful, see me free
Looking forward to what comes after
I'm buried 'neath that old magnolia tree
(Chorus)
The best is not behind me
No, the best is yet to come
I'm holding on to right now
Til my work here is done
The best is not behind me
No, the best is yet to come
I'm holding on to right now
Til my work here is done
