The Nearest thing to heaven
Johnny Cash
By Marcel Veltman
I have sCailed the piecefull waters of the ocean wide and blue
I hGeld my breath and watched the western sCunset's golden view
I've flown above the mountainpeaks and valley's wide and green
But you're the nGearest thing to hG7eaven That I've sCeen
You're the nFearest thing to heaven, yes you aCre
I've sGearched for happiness so long and fCar
But my seFarch for love was through
The dCay that I found you
Cause you're the nGearest thing to hG7eaven, yes you aCre
I confess that I've been tempted by the luring magic charms
When a smile was flashed my way and stood before to open marks
But I turned and walked away because I love you like I do
You're the nearest thing to heaven, darling you
(Chorus)
I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day
Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away
I love the pretty flowers but I cannot buy their worth
Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven on this earth
(Chorus)
