Asking How Your Beauty Can Be
Asking How Your Beauty Can Be
In my dreams, dancing in those night dreams as I do
I met HE that hung the bright stars in the night sky
Asking a thousand questions, I failed in asking why
Spring rain is so perfect, the Autumn moon is too
the world be so ugly but such beauty rests in you!
Spring rain sings out as it cascades on down
little songs sprout up after it hits the ground
So perfect that massive Oak from such a tiny seed
Nature's wisdom which we would do well to heed
Yes, in my night dreams these thoughts are found
Autumn moon splattering its light down upon you
giving your lovely face the beauty that it is due
The perfect form to match those deep brown eyes
hanging there to shine on you from the night skies
If I ever saw perfection it must have been in you
This world so ugly, dark nights are blessed gifts
yet that relief pales to your grace that so uplifts
As your heart inspires, my mind finds its treasure
we fill our cup and forget to ever our love measure
In my dreams these images dance with the moon shifts
In my dreams, dancing in those night dreams as I do
I met HE that hung the bright stars in the night sky
Asking a thousand questions, I failed in asking why
Spring rain is so perfect, the Autumn moon is too
the world be so ugly but such beauty rests in you!
