Beautiful Things

I forgot the sound of the rain
As it falls on my skin
A new beginnin'
I forgot the sound of the wind
As it calls for me to dance again
I forgot the river of your voice
And my name shimmering in it
I forgot the nights in the air
With moon in our hair
It was only beginning

How can beautiful things still be around
After you've left me now?
How can beautiful things still come out
Out of the ground?
How can beautiful things escape my mind?
Saying, "God, please, let me have this one thing one more time"

There are beautiful things
There are beautiful things
There are beautiful things
Worth keeping us
Keeping us alive
