Teddy Pendergrass - My Greatest Inspiration Lyrics

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 the 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 into a song
Tender as a baby's touch, I needed you, oh, so much
At last the load is 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
And I'm thankful, yes, I'm blessed 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 had the pleasure just 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 keep just keep on liftin' me up now, mm
(Higher, higher)
You inspire me, I want you to keep on liftin' me up
(Higher, higher)

I want you to keep on liftin' me up
(Higher, higher)
Alright, alright
See, you got me, you got me doin' things
(Higher, higher)
I've never done before
See, you inspire me, you inspire me

Don't you know I love you, girl?
(Higher, higher)
Hey, hey, hey, mm, mm, mm
You, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
Higher
(Higher)
Higher

Higher, higher
You, you, you keep on liftin' me now
(Higher)
Higher
(Higher)
Higher

Oh, now, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher, higher)
You keep on liftin' me
You know what you do to me

Come on, keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
High
(Higher)
Higher
