"The Only Thing that Matters"

(Copyright 2000 Sherri Gough)

Verse 1:

What’s it all about; this life of mine

I’ve tried to figure it out; ‘til I finally realized

That there’s a way to make a difference

In the lives that I touch

I’ve gotta reach out my hand and show them love

Chorus:

It’s the bond that we share with friends and family

The smile of a child or a stranger that we meet

And showing tenderness will be the best thing we have ever done

The only thing that matters is love

Verse 2:

No matter what our accomplishments or the mountains we’ve climbed

It’s only love that stands the test of time

And when this life is over, our chance will disappear

But we’ll leave our legacy that’ll shine through the years

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

Love is a flame, and as it touches each heart

It lights up the way, and it keeps burning on…

Break

Repeat Chorus

Oh, the only thing that matters…is love
