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 best of all 
You are the best of all, in the whole wide world
You are the best of all, the loveliest best 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 smile again
Cause we have known for long that

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