The Most Beautiful Things
Among the most beautiful things I have known
I only recognized their beautiful colors when I saw you
Among the very welcome things I have received
I recognized my colors in them
And then I saw myself
It's up there with the sky and the moon
Time of days, weeks, months, years, decades
And centuries, millennia that will pass
Aquamarine puts stars in the sea
Beaches, bays, arms, capes, seas, gulfs
And peninsulas and oceans that will not dry up
And the beautiful things are more beautiful
When you are
Where you are
Because you are
The things are so much more beautiful
Because you are
Where you are
Today you are
In the most beautiful things
Among the most beautiful things I have known
I only recognized their beautiful colors when I saw you
Among the very welcome things I have received
I recognized my colors in them
And then I saw myself
It's up there with the sky and the moon
Time of days, weeks, months, years, decades
And centuries, millennia that will pass
Aquamarine puts stars in the sea
Beaches, bays, arms, capes, seas, gulfs
And peninsulas and oceans that will not dry up
And the beautiful things are more beautiful
When you are
Where you are
Today you are
The things are so much more beautiful
Because you are
Where you are
Today you are
In the most beautiful things
Yes, they are
