| [00:06.30] |
I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue |
| [00:12.00] |
I held my breath and watched the western sunsets golden hue |
| [00:17.64] |
I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green |
| [00:23.01] |
But you're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen |
| [00:28.62] |
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
| [00:34.47] |
I have searched for happiness so long and far |
| [00:39.96] |
But my search for love was through, the day that I found you |
| [00:45.21] |
'Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
| [00:51.51] |
I confess that I've been tempted by a luring magic charms |
| [00:57.18] |
When the smile was flashed my way and stood before two open arms |
| [01:02.85] |
But I turned and walked away because I love you like I do |
| [01:08.46] |
You're the nearest thing to heaven, darlin' you |
| [01:13.83] |
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
| [01:19.68] |
I have searched for happiness so long and far |
| [01:25.17] |
But my search for love was through, the day that I found you |
| [01:30.33] |
'Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
| [01:42.21] |
I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day |
| [01:47.91] |
Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away |
| [01:53.67] |
I love the pretty flowers but they cannot buy their worth |
| [01:59.01] |
But you're the nearest thing to heaven on this earth |
| [02:04.62] |
You're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
| [02:10.44] |
I have searched for happiness so long and far |
| [02:15.87] |
But my search for love was through, the day that I found you |
| [02:21.15] |
'Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven, yes, you are |
