Bryan Adams - The Best Was Yet to Come

This song was featured on the album "Cuts Like A Knife" but was actually written for a film "Star 80" on the life of Dorothy Stratten, a Vancouver girl who went to Los Angeles to become a Playboy bunny and was murdered. Adams was touched by the story of a small town girl who went to try and better her life, only to be horrifically gunned down by a jealous boyfriend.
Adams is singing live (2020) to the original TV track mixed in 1983.
Lyric:
Just a small town girl in the city lights - the best was yet to come
Then lonely days turned to endless nights - the best was yet to come
How were you to know - that you would be the lucky one
Ain't it funny how time flies - when the best was yet to come

You can cry yourself to sleep at night - you can't change the things...
You had it there then it slipped away - ya you left the song unsung
Even through your tears - I never saw you come undone
What's so good about goodbye - when the best was yet to come
I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
When you were here and livin' in a dream
In the moment that it takes
You find you made your first mistake
Like the setting sun - You turn around it's gone

Just a small town girl who had it made - or so the story goes
She had it there then it slipped away - how was she to know
Even through her tears - I never saw her come undone
Ain't it funny how time flies - when the best was yet to come
What's so good about goodbye - when the best was yet to come
