The Greatest Song I Ever Heard

Now the greenest green i've ever seen

Was the grass on which you laid

And the bluest blue was in my eyes

When you said you couldn't stay

And the biggest lost i ever took

Was losing what we've begun

And the greatest song i ever heard

Was the one we never sung



Now the reddest red i've always said

Is the sunset coming down

Soon the blackest night that kills the light

Is the only thing around

And the downest down i ever been

Is when i knew my race was run

And the greatest song i ever heard

Was the one we never sung



Time will kill the pain they say

And we'll live to love another day

If you wanna win you got to play the game

Now the greatest break came on the day

We were standing in the rain

And the hardest hurt i've ever know

Was when you tried to ease my pain

And the longest day in history

Waiting till my crying's done

And the saddest song i ever heard

Was the one we finally sung
