All the Good Things In Life
What's the most important thing in life
It's love, love, love
Nothing else has ever ever comes close
More than anything else above
Call me an over-the-hill silly old duffer
But this is what I've found
Without it, there's an empty space down deep
Your heart has a hollow sound
So if you haven't yet experienced true love
The best part is up ahead
It's the greatest treat you'll ever experience
You'll feel giddiness in your head
Take it from me, I've learned from experience
It's why I wake up with a smile
It's away ahead of whatever comes second
It wins out by a country mile
Love is basically what this life's all about
Passion for another human being
About treasuring all the good things we have
It even surpasses peeing!
