The Greatest Thing

Cher · Other Songs - Cher

I don't know why you' hurt, inside,

or what was said to make, you, cry.

I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest thing to me.

And when, you' feeling like you're not enough.

I'll give you wings, i'll lift you up.

I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest, greatest thing to me.



I don't wa-wanna waste another day,

I'm thinking of you, the man of my day.

I walk and see you once another day.



'Cause when I'm with you, I fall apart.

I see your permanently broken heart.

Baby, you're the greatest to me,

Know, no matter what, what, what.

I don't know why you' hurt, inside,

or what was said to make, you, cry.

I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest thing to me.

And when, you' feeling like you're not enough.

I'll give you wings, i'll lift you up.



I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest, greatest thing to me.

I don't wa-wanna waste another day,

I'm thinking of you, the man of my day.

I walk and see you once another day.

'Cause when I'm with you, I fall apart.

I see your permanently broken heart.

Baby, you're the greatest to me,

Know, no matter what, what, what.



I don't know why you' hurt, inside,

or what was said to make, you, cry.

I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest thing to me.

And when, you' feeling like you're not enough.

I'll give you wings, i'll lift you up.

I hope, that you can see,

you are the greatest, greatest thing to me.
