Arlie Conner - Ain't No Better Time Lyrics

You used to say you really didn't know me
You used to say you had to catch your breath
You needed time to think it over
I bet you hide your heart, no matter who you're with
Now darling, you've got to take a gamble
You're crazy if you're thinking there's a guarantee
You're never gonna know the inside story
Until you write yourself into the mystery

There ain't no better time, baby
This ain't the time for you to wait and see
There ain't no better time, come on baby
The planets are aligned for you and me
There ain't no better time for you and me

You didn't want to get entangled
You wanted to be sure we were a perfect fit
You didn't want to look so foolish
You know if we ever had to split
But I tell you, you've got to take a gamble
You're foolish if you're waiting for a guarantee
You're never gonna know the inside story
Unless you put yourself into the mystery

There ain't no better time, come on baby
This ain't the time for you to wait and see
There ain't no better time, come on baby
The planets are aligned for you and me
There ain't no better time for you and me

What do you say, let's do it
Jump the creek and take a chance
Come on baby, you know we hold each other's future in our hands

You didn't want to shoulder any baggage
Papers show how bad the split can get
Stories prove you should be cautious
But come on, I hope that you would take that bet
Darling, you've got to take a gamble
You're crazy if you think there's a guarantee
You're never gonna know the inside story
Until you write yourself into the mystery
There ain't no better time for you and me

Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby

You used to say you really didn't know me
You used to say you had to catch your breath
You needed time to think it over
I bet you hide your heart no matter who you're with
But come on, you've got to take a gamble
You're crazy if you think that there's a guarantee
You're never gonna know the inside story
Until you write yourself into the mystery

There ain't no better time, baby
This ain't no time for you to wait and see
Ain't no better time, come on baby
The planets are aligned for you and me
Ain't no better time for you and me

Baby, baby
Ain't no better time for you and me
