Lyrics

VERSE
She was takin' too long in the checkout line
I was standin' behind; she was wastin' my time
And, besides, my ice cream was beginnin' to melt
Even so, I didn't say what I felt

VERSE
The reason for that is that I'd seen her face
And my heart was beginnin' to race
So I forgot the ice cream - you know what I mean?
And when she said "Sorry," I got lost in the dream

First PRE-CHORUS
And now, we're a long way from there

CHORUS
Today will be so amazing
That yesterday will be utterly mad
'Cause yesterday was the best day, oh, we've ever had
But today will be downright breathtaking

VERSE
Bought the ice cream real fast; she was sortin' her cart
I needed to ask; needed someplace to start
Could she use my help gettin' all that stuff in her car?
She smiled and said: "Yes, it's not very far."

Second PRE-CHORUS
How we got from there to here, no words could express

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Such is my love for her
That tomorrow will be better than today
And the next day will be even better than that

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
(Jazz vocalizing)
And the next day will be even better than that
