Beautiful Things Lyrics

That old oak tree

In the corner of our field

Has been standing there

Since I can remember

As I lay beneath the shade

Staring up at the clouds

Watching leaves

Dance their way to the ground

I'm thinking to myself

Who was responsible

For all of this

God makes beautiful things

As I look around, I can see them everyday

When he gave the butterfly its wings

He had some imagination

Blessed this world with such beautiful things

That clear blue lake

Just north of the bridge

Has been paradise since I was a child

And I'd go there

When I need to catch my breath

That wilderness would save me for a while

As I walk along that shore

I can hear her

Wisper to me

God makes beautiful things

As I listen, I can hear them everyday

When he gave the birds a song to sing

He had some imagination

Blessed this world with such beautiful things
