What Could Be Better
JIMMY RAY:
What could be better
Than holding you close to me like this?

ALICE:
I'll be in trouble if I stay out late again

JIMMY RAY:
Ten more minutes in my arms
Won't do any harm

ALICE:
What could be better
Than holding you close to me?
I can't imagine improving this moment at all

JIMMY RAY:
If I asked you for a kiss

ALICE:
How could I resist?

BOTH:
If you said this was heaven
I would not disagree

COMPANY:
What could be better
Than holding you close to me like this?

ALICE:
I dreamed of it every day
Since I turned sixteen

BOTH:
Lightning strike me if I'm lying
You're all that I need
ALICE, JIMMY RAY, and COMPANY:
Let me stay here forever
I don't want to go on

COMPANY:
What could be better
Than holding you close to me like this?
When there is music and dancing
And stars up above

BOTH:
Lightning strike me if I'm lying
You're the one I love
