I've been so many places
I've seen so many things
But none quite as lovely as you

More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have pleasure to behold

You're my latest 
And my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

Things never looked clearer
Peace within never felt nearer
My burden's gone, it's turned to a song

Tender as a baby's touch
I needed you, oh, so much
At last, the load's so light

You're my latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

I plan to give you all that I have
I'll be everything
Everything you think I am

You make life a joy to live
Yes I'm blessed
Yes I'm thankful
Just to know you

I've been so many places
I've seen so many things
But none quite as delectable as you

More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure to behold

You're my latest
Tell you you're my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration
You inspire me, inspire me
Don't you know it, my latest, my greatest inspiration?

You just keep on liftin' me up, now (higher, higher)
You inspire me
I want you to keep on liftin' me up (higher)
All right (higher)

You inspire me, 
You inspire me, inspire me (higher)

You, you, you you you
You you
Keep on liftin' me up (higher)
All right (higher)
All right, all right
(Higher, higher)

See it's all about you
It's all about you
Ain't nobody, nobody in this world (higher)
Can never take the place of you (higher)
