Al Jarreau - Better Than Anything lyrics

Better than sailing at midnight Better than diving for pearls Better than skiing in Aspen Better than feeding the squirrels Better than finding a horseshoe Better than losing your head Better than anything thought of Better than anything said Better than singing right out loud Or being spotted in a crowd Better than anything except being in love Do you know, being in love Better than four sets of Dizzy Better than Count Basie's band Better than Rollins and Coltrane Better than being on the stand Better than Ella Fitzgerald Better than Miles' latest news Better than Bill Evans' ballads Better than Joe Williams' blues Better than hearing Lady Day Or checking in at Monterey Better than anything except being in love Do you know, being in love It's a circus Elephants dancing Clowns on parade Better than peanuts and popcorn Fresh lemonade Better than rides on the midway Better than seals blowing horns Better than men shot from cannons Better than fresh ears of corn Better than balancing a wire Or watching tigers leap through fire Better than anything except being in love
