lyrics

A BEAUTIFUL THING

The song we sing is A Beautiful Thing
As it spins around our room
In melody with harmony
Waiting for the world to see
How magic we can be…

And then we stop
Then we stop to figure it out
And then we stop
But by then the melody’s come round…

I’m loving the way you play
Though I don’t even know its name
But everybody knows that’s the way it goes
When you sing from your soul
I’m loving the words you say
Even though they fade away
‘Cos everybody knows that’s the way it goes
And to sing is A Beautiful Thing…

The time it takes to write a song
Is equal to the love it takes to sing along
So raise your voices and join with me
Together we can make the perfect harmony…

And then we stop
Then we stop to figure it out
And then we stop
But by then the melody’s come round…

I’m loving the way you play
Though I don’t even know its name
But everybody knows that’s the way it goes
When you sing from your soul
I’m loving the words you say
Even though they fade away
‘Cos everybody knows that’s the way it goes
And to sing is A Beautiful Thing…
