Loveliest Thing Songtext / Lyric

One, two



To me you are the loveliest thing I've seen all day

You can't take that away, no, you can't take that away

All my life, I wondered why it couldn't be this way

That was up until today, oh, it had to be this way



Today, wait until the morning comes

Before you slip away

Without permission, without suspicion

Without permission given



You seem to have a friendlier smile than all the rest

Well, I looked and you were best, yeah, I looked at all the rest

You can't imagine passionate words that I would say

If only you would stay, oh, you know you gotta stay






And today, wait until the morning comes

Before you slip away

Without permission, above suspicion

Without permission given



You used to be an early bird but how was I to know

You would leave without shedding a tear

I only want to love you, I'll make a wish

And suddenly I'm glad that I have you here

Oh, I'm glad I have you here today



To me you are the loveliest thing I've seen all day

And you can't take that away, no, you can't take that away

But all my life, I wondered why it couldn't be this way

That was up until today, yeah, it had to be this way



Today, wait until the morning comes

Before you slip away, today, oh

Before you slip away

Without permission, above suspicion

Without permission given to you
