It's Getting Better

(album: Mama's Big Ones - 1970)

Once I believed that when love came to me
It would come with rockets, bells and poetry
But with me and you
It just started quietly and grew
And believe it or not
Now, there's something groovy and good 'bout whatever we got

And it's getting better
Growing stronger
Warm and wilder
Getting better every day, better every day

I don't feel all turned on and starry-eyed
I just feel a sweet contentment deep inside
Holding you at night
Just seems kind of natural and right
And it's not hard to see
That it isn't half of what it's gonna to turn out to be

'Cause it's getting better
Growing stronger
Warm and wilder
Getting better every day, better every day

Ba-da-da-da, da, da, da-da, da, da
Da-da-da, da-da
And I don't mind waiting
I don't mind waiting
'Cause no matter how long it takes the two of us know

That it's getting better
Growing stronger
Warm and wilder
Getting better every day, better every day

Better every day
It's getting better every day
Getting better every day
It's getting better every day
Getting better every day
It's getting better every day
Getting better every day
It's getting better every day
