The Niceness Of It All Songtext
von Gilbert O’Sullivan

It′s the niceness of it all
Baby, it's the niceness of it all
Whether you are close to me or far
It doesn′t matter in the least
As long as I can be with you
Any time I need to, like a baby
That's just starting to grow
It's the niceness of it all
That makes me love you more and more

And it′s the niceness of it all
Baby, it′s the niceness of it all
That makes me write to you and say
How much I've missed you over the weeks
That makes me call you on the phone
Whenever there′s a chance to speak
And even if there's only time to say hello
It′s the niceness of it all
That makes me love you more and more


I don't know what′s come over me
I've hardly touched a drink
My mother thinks it's marvelous
He′s off the road to sin
She thinks you′re just the tonic that I need
And who am I to argue
After all, isn't that what I believe

It′s the niceness of It all
Baby, it's the niceness of it all
If I can′t be with you for a week
Then a day will have to do
I won't say that that′s enough
But then beggars can't be choosers
And besides if nothing else at least I know
It's the niceness of it all
That makes me love you more and more

Every time I see a shadow
I think what a blessing it must be
Not to have to talk with fingers
Not to have look with nothing to see
You try living your life to the full
Confined to a chair
Try and hide your loneliness when no one is there

Yes, it′s the niceness of it all
That makes me love you more and more


It′s the niceness of it all, babe
It's what I like, and what I need
It′s the niceness of it all, it's the niceness of it all babe
It′s what I like, and what I need

Whether close to me or far?
It's no matter where you are
For as far as I can see
You′re the only one for me

It's the niceness of it all, it's the niceness of it all babe
It′s what I like, and what I need
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do

It′s the niceness of it all, it's the niceness of it all babe
It′s what I like, and what I need
It's the niceness, just the niceness
Just the niceness of it all
Oh, what I like, what I need babe

Whether close to me or far
It′s no matter where you are
For as far as I can see
You're the only one for me

It′s the niceness of it all, babe
It's the niceness, just the niceness of it all
It's what I like, what I need
Oh, what I like, what I need

Whether close to me or far
It′s no matter where you are
For as far as I can see
