You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me

Dean Martin · Forever Dean Martin [2007]

(Jim Weatherly)



I've had my share of life's up and downs

But fate's been kind the downs have been few

I guess you could say that I've been lucky

Oh, I guess you could say it's all because of you.



And if anyone should ever write my life story

Oh, whatever reason there might be

You'll be there between each line of pain and glory

'Cause you're the best thing that's ever happened to me

You're the best thing that ever happened to me.



Lord, there have been times when times were hard

But always somehow I made it through

'Cause for every moment I've spent hurting

There was a moment I've spent loving you.



And if anyone should ever write my life story

Oh, whatever reason there might be

You'll be there between each line of pain and glory

'Cause you're the best thing that's ever happened to me

You're the best thing that ever happened to me...
