Billy Yates - The Best Thing In The World Lyrics

I stood on the banks of that mighty Mississippi ‘n watched it grow
And I leaned against that leaning tower of Pizza a few years ago
I‘ve seen that big Hope Diamond
Been close enough to touch the largest pearl
But when I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world

They said there’s nothin’ greater
Than to see that great Grand Canyon way out west
And they told us that Yosemite and Yellow Stone were the best
So we took a tour and had some fun
And I sure learned a lot on that trip girl
Right when I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world

When I’m holdin’ you and kissin’ you
It makes me know there’s nothing else I wanta do, in my life
When you’re touchin’ me and lovin’ me
I know that there’s no place that I would rather be, but by your side

And when I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world

When I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world

When I’m holdin’ you and kissin’ you
It makes me know there’s nothing else I wanta do, in my life
When you’re touchin’ me and lovin’ me
I know that there’s no place that I would rather be, but by your side

When I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world

Ohhhhh, when I’m lyin’ next to you
I’m next to the best thing in the world
