"Arthur's Theme" (Best That You Can Do)", es una canción interpretada por Christopher Cross, que fue el tema principal de la película "Arthur" dirigida por Steve Gordon en 1981 y protagonizada por Dudley Moore y Liza Minnelli. Alcanzó el número 1 en los EE.UU. Billboard Hot 100 y en Noruega en el VG-lista chart.
Fue escrita en colaboración entre Cross, Burt Bacharach y Carole Bayer Sager. Un cuarto escritor fue el exmarido de Liza Minnelli, el compositor australiano Peter Allen, que colabora también frecuentemente con Bayer Sager, y la línea "When you get caught between the moon and New York City" que se escucha en el coro se tomó de una canción inédita que escribieron juntos con anterioridad.
La canción ganó el Oscar 1981 a la Mejor Canción Original y el Golden Globe Award por Mejor Canción Original. El premio fue presentado por la cantante Bette Midler, quien, en su presentación de las canciones nominadas se refirió a la canción como "That Song About the Moon and New York City".
"Arthur's Theme" (Best That You Can Do)"
Lyrics
Once in your life you find her
Someone that turns your heart around
And next thing you know you're closing down the town
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
Wondering to yourself, "Hey, what've I found?"
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do ......
The best that you can do is fall in love
Arthur he does as he pleases
All of his life, he's mastered choice
Deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy
Living his life one day at a time
And showing himself a really good time
Laughing about the way they want him to be
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do .....
The best that you can do is fall in love
When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do .....
The best that you can do is fall in love

When you get caught between the Moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the Moon and New York City
The best that you can do .....
The best that you can do is fall in love
