Sometimes it can be
That I am so bad to you
Oh boy that´s hurting me
Cause I know it´s hurting you
That´s why I shall make
Very consoling steps
Oh my heart does shake
And say to you perhaps

You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world
You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world

Sometimes it can be
That a thing for you goes bad
That´s also bad for me
Cause your failure makes you sad
Then I comfort you
And I´ll say with my song
Please do smile again
Cause we have known for long that

You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world

When one day at home
I do have a little grief
I´ll always look to you, not because you are the chief
But because you do know tears and when I say
Oh my life is blue, you take the blues away

You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world
You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world
You are the best of all, the loveliest of all
You are the best of all in the whole wide world
