The Greatest

The Greatest
Thought I was standing tall
I thought I seen it all
But baby I was wrong
Cause you're the greatest
I walk a thousand miles
But nothing's what I found
Until you came around
Cause you're the greatest

Search high and low for love, just
To find out, that it was here all along, and
I know it, but I wanted it
I should've been chasing you

And I was reaching for the stars
Didn't have to look so far
Cause love's where you are
But I didn't have a clue

And now I realize
That the stars are in your eyes
Cause you always shine
Baby you're the greatest

Thought everything had changed
Until the day you came
And took away the pain
Baby you're the greatest
I always wore a frown
I never use to smile
Until you showed me how
Baby you're the greatest

Search high and low for love, just
To find out, that it was here all along, and
I know it, what I wanted it
I should've been chasing you

And I was reaching for the stars
Didn't have to look so far
Cause love's where you are
But I didn't have a clue

And now I realize
That the stars are in your eyes
Cause you always shine
Baby you're the greatest

Reaching for the stars then I bumped into you
And I cannot believe I was searching so long
Ooh baby, I'm so taken
And all that I need is to look into your eyes

And I was reaching for the stars
Didn't have to look so far
Cause love's where you are
But I didn't have a clue

And now I realize
That the stars are in your eyes
Cause you always shine
Baby you're the greatest
