Beautiful

Adam Kamerer

Your beauty lies not in your eyes,
But in the fiery hollows of your chest,
Within your breast, that beating thing,
Gilt in gold and feathered wings,
On which you'll fly towards Heaven's skies,
Uplifted by your dreams.
Oh beautiful, oh beautiful,
My heart your heart redeems.

And if you speak of darker days,
I'll hush you with a kiss,
For to brush my lips upon your lips
Would bask my world in brighter bliss
Than any sun or moon or star
Could shower on this earth.
Oh, beautiful, oh beautiful,
In your love I find my mind's rebirth.

A simple spark 'tween you and I,
Has set my soul on fire,
A brightening flame that I sincerely hope
Never will expire,
But if it does, and you and I
Seek to find our separate ways,
Oh beautiful, oh beautiful,
I'll look back only fondly
On these very best of days.
Oh beautiful, oh beautiful,
I'll look back only fondly
On these very best of days.
