The Greatest Love - Joe South

You have a love that buys you pretty clothes

All the fine things heaven only knows that I wish I could

You have a love that dances and sings

Swings, says all the pretty little things that a playboy should

Well, he’s got money, he’s got charms

And when youre walkin' on and on

It hurts me so, but I just want you to know

That it’s not easy, oh, heaven knows I tried

And wish the best to you, push myself aside

And that’s the greatest love, oh, that youll ever find

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh, oh

You have a love, he’s got the power

To entertain each and every hour of the day and night

You have a love, he’s got the ways and means

To show you all the wild scenes when the lights are bright

Well, love should never be possessed

And this my darlin', don’t forget

Youre free to go, oh, but I just want you to know

That it’s not easy, oh, heaven knows I tried

And I wish the best to you and I push myself aside

That’s the greatest love, oh, that youll ever find

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh, oh

Well, love should never be possessed

And this my darlin', don’t forget

Youre free to go, oh, but I just want you to know

That it’s not easy, oh, heaven knows I tried

And I wish the best to you, push myself aside

That’s the greatest love, oh, that youll ever find
