Harry Connick, Jr. - Greatest Love lyrics

(Verse) When I was a baby lyin in my bed My mama told me stories in her head Sometimes we were happy, sometimes it was sad I’d keep em forever, some of the best days that I had (Verse) She told me bout men, waited all their life Thank God I’m a boatload, you never got on my way She told me bout women, just wanna be true But my mama man did finally found a woman to do (Pre-Chorus 1) My mama said “too little I was then” Well you can right the error, the life that lies ahead (Chorus) We’re on our way to forever, we’re on our way to feel good We’re on our way to a lifetime like we knew we could We were right in the middle, ain’t young and old But we tell em the greatest love story ever told (Verse) Mama said there’s a reason they call them fairytales Only people like Jonah wind up living in wells But she said I was special and I will never give in I’ll find me a girl and a fairytale will begin (Pre-Chorus 2) My mama tried to live until she died And even if she never met you she’d be happy you’re my bride (Chorus) We’re on our way to forever, we’re on our way to feel good We’re on our way to a lifetime like we knew we could We were right in the middle, ain’t young and old But we tell em the greatest love story ever told Yea we tell em the greatest love story ever told We tell em the greatest love story ever told
