I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue
  G7                                   C
I held my breath and watch the Western sunset's golden hue.

I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green
               G7                                C     C7
But you're the nearest thing to Heaven that I've seen.

You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes you are.
       G7                                 C
I have searched for happiness so long and far.
                           C7          F
But my search for love was through the day that I found you.
                  C                G7               C
'Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yeas you are.

I confess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms.
When a smile was flashed my way and stood before two openarms.
But I turn and walk away because I love you like I do.
You're the nearest thing to Heaven, darling you.

I have watched the silver raindrops fall to Earth to cool the day.
Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away.
I love the pretty flowers but I cannot vie their worth.
But you're the nearest thing to Heaven on this Earth.
