When I see your smile, it brightens every moment now
I love you, I love you, oooh, you make me feel warm inside my heart
Baby oooh, no one can come between us and break us down, I love you

The lyrics of "The Greatest Love" by J.A.M.E.S. WATTS celebrates two main themes - self-love and the importance of teaching children to love themselves. The opening line, "I believe that children are our future; teach them well and let them lead the way," emphasizes the importance of guiding and nurturing the younger generation, who will eventually become the leaders of tomorrow. The song encourages parents and educators to show children the beauty that they possess inside and to give them a sense of pride so they can achieve their potential. The song suggests that by showing children their worth, we can help them fulfill their potential and bring positive change to the world.
The second theme is about the importance of self-love. The song suggests that even though people may search for someone to look up to, the most important thing is to learn to love oneself. The message is that we should not depend on others to find our happiness, but rather look within ourselves. The line, "I never found anyone who fulfilled my need, a lonely place to be, and so I learned to depend on me," highlights a common struggle many people face when searching for someone who can make them feel good about themselves. Ultimately, the song concludes that the greatest love of all is when we love ourselves.

I never found anyone who fulfilled my need.
Despite searching for someone to fulfill this role in my life, I never found that person.
A lonely place to be, and so I learned to depend on me.
It can be difficult and isolating to rely solely on oneself, but I learned to trust my own inner strength and wisdom.
I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow.
I made a conscious decision to chart my own path and not let anyone dictate my life or overshadow my achievements.
If I fail, if I succeed.
Regardless of whether I experience success or failure, I will stay true to my beliefs and values.
At least I lived as I believe.
I take comfort in the fact that I have lived my life according to my own moral compass.
No matter what they take from me,
Even if others take away my material possessions or achievements,
They can't take away my dignity.
they cannot take away my inherent worth and sense of self-respect.
Because the greatest love of all is happening to me.
I am experiencing the greatest love of all - self-love and acceptance.
I found the greatest love of all inside of me.
I have come to love and appreciate myself, flaws and all.
The greatest love of all is easy to achieve.
Loving yourself is not difficult, and it can bring immense joy and fulfillment in life.
Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.
The ultimate form of love and happiness is learning to accept and cherish oneself.
And if by chance that special place that you've been dreaming of
If by chance you find yourself in the place you've always dreamt of,
Lead you to a lonely place
But that place turns out to be isolating and empty,
Find your strength in love
Remember that your strength lies in the love you give to yourself and the world around you.
