We've proven romance is still the best of everything
That sudden thrill, the best of everything
That one little sigh is treasure you cannot buy
Or measure, by any test, the best of everything

You've found the Moon and the Sun
Yes, he's the one, it seems
But soon it's done
And not the fun it seemed

You walk through the night just groping
It's still alright, you're hoping
Love can be all or nothing, but even when it's nothing
It's still the best, the best of everything
We've proven romance is still the best of everything
