The Greatest Song I've Ever Heard

The Greatest Song I've Ever Heard
Performer(s): The New Seekers



Now, the greenest green I've ever seen, was the grass on which you lay
and the bluest blue was in my eyes, when you said you couldn't stay
and the biggest loss I ever took was, losing what we'd begun
and the greatest song I've 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've ever been was, when I knew my race was run
and the greatest song I've ever heard was the one we never sung

Time will keep the pain, they say, and we'll live to love another day
if you want to win, you've got to play the game

Now, the greyest grey came on the day, we were standing in the rain
and the hardest hurt I've ever known, was when you tried to ease the pain
and the longest day in history is waiting till my crying's done
and the greatest song I've ever heard was the one we never sung

And the saddest song I've ever heard was the one we fin'lly sung
