I can honestly say I'm doin' okay
It feels really good to be me
I might not be rich
But I've got all the goodies
That anyone ever could need
All of that stuff doesn't add up
To what I hold dear in my heart
It's all just stuff to help me get by
It's not the best things in my life
'Cause the best things in life are these
The people and places
And memories of faces we lost
In a magical moments in time
And everything shines
And the angels sing
The best things in life are these
♪
The little League Park, right before dark
I first turn 'round, playin' the blues
Singin' along to a James Taylor's song
As Emily Jones in our days
My brother and I
On our cross-country drive
Get splashed by the salt of the sea
My first kiss goodnight
In the next mornin' light
I'm gettin' my sleep
In a very good pry, oh
The best things in life are these
The people and places
And memories of faces we lost
In a magical moments in time
When everything shines
And the angels sing
The best things in life are these
♪
So, when life gets too crazy
And here's your reminder
To slow down and take
Some time to remember
The best things in life are these
The people and places
And memories of faces we lost
In a magical moments in time
When everything shines
And the angels sing
The best things in life are these
