Nicknamed "Sassy" and "The Divine One", Vaughan was a four-time Grammy Award winner, including a "Lifetime Achievement Award". The National Endowment for the Arts bestowed upon her its "highest honor in jazz", the NEA Jazz Masters Award, in 1989.

Across the desert plains

Where nothing dares to grow

I taught you how to sing

You taught me everything I know

And thought the night is young

And we don't know if we'll live to see the sun

The best is yet to come

I know, you know

That we've only just begun

Through the highs and lows

And how can I live without you

You're such a part of me

And you've always been the one

Keeping me forever young

And the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Don't look now, the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Thinking of the times

How we laughed and cried

I wouldn't change a thing

I couldn't even if I tried

Through the wind and rain

The spirit of our song remains the same

And the best is yet to come

I know, you know

That we've only just begun

Through the highs and lows

And how can I live without you

You're such a part of me

And you've always been the one

Keeping me forever young

And the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Don't look now, the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Oh can you feel it in the air

It's in your heart and everywhere

We got to keep that dream alive

We cross another road

And face another day

Soldiers never die

They only fade away

How can we grow old

When the soundtrack of our lives is rock and roll

And the best is yet to come

I know, you know

That we've only just begun

Through the highs and lows

And how can I live without you

You're such a part of me

And you've always been the one

Keeping me forever young

And the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Don't look now, the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Don't look now, the best is yet to come

Na na na na

Take my hand, the best is yet to come.
