The Best Thing Lyrics

	Lyrics：Carly Simon Music：Carly Simon
	I was his foreigner
	And he was mine.
	We ate on terraces
	And drank the cheapest wine.
	And he believed in me
	Down by the serpentine.
	How was I to know
	it was the best thing
	To come along for a long time.
	I turned the page
	And saw three children with smiles.
	I looked to see
	What I could make of the youngest child.
	And as she blew the candles out
	She turned five.
	How was I to know
	It was the best thing
	To come along for a long time.
	What do the people at the end of the world do
	About time? What about time?
	Their secret sleeps with me.
