Save the Best for Last Lyrics

Sometimes the snow comes down in June Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon I see the passion in your eyes Sometimes it's all a big surprise 'Cause there was a time when all I did was wish You'd tell me this was love It's not the way I hoped or how I planned But somehow it's enough And now we're standing face to face Isn't this world a crazy place Just when I thought our chance had passed You go and save the best for last All of the nights you came to me When some silly girl had set you free You wondered how you'd make it through I wondered what was wrong with you 'Cause how could you give your love to someone else And share your dreams with me Sometimes the very thing you're looking for Is the one thing you can't see And now we're standing face to face Isn't this world a crazy place Just when I thought our chance had passed You go and save the best for last Sometimes the very thing you're looking for Is the one thing you can't see Sometimes the snow comes down in June Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon Just when I thought our chance had passed You go and save the best for last You went and saved the best for last

Meaning of Save the Best for Last

“Save the Best for Last” captures a poignant and unexpected love story, steeped in wistful reflection and a touch of bewildered joy. Vanessa Williams’ voice conveys the emotional turbulence of realizing that the person you thought you didn't need – the one seemingly unattainable – was actually the key to your happiness. The lyrics paint a picture of missed opportunities and unspoken feelings, symbolized by surreal imagery like snow in June and the moon circling the sun, representing the illogical beauty of fate. It’s about recognizing that sometimes, what we desperately seek is right before us, hidden within the shadows of our own assumptions. Despite initial doubts and the feeling of a chance lost, the narrator finds solace and profound love in a surprising arrival, acknowledging “you go and save the best for last,” ultimately celebrating the beautiful, chaotic serendipity of true connection.
