SHIRLEY BASSEY
"The Greatest Love Of All"
(Michael Masser, Linda Creed)

I believe the children are the future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter, remind us how it used to be

Everybody's searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
Never found anyone who fulfilled that need
A lonely place to be, so I learned to depend on me

I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow
If I fail, if I succeed, at least I lived as I believe
And no matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity

Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all inside of me
The greatest love of all is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are the future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter, remind us how it used to be

I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow
If I fail, if I succeed, at least I lived as I believe
And no matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity

Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all inside of me
The greatest love of all is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all
