"Everything Was Beautiful" lyrics
"Everything Was Beautiful"
Did you hear the swallow?
He was calling out your name
He was saying that the winter's almost over
Fortune's on the wing
And now that spring is here
You will be leaving
Paint the sky in blue
And the colors that are you
Softly fade away
It's a dim horizon
My eyes are getting old
I'll see you in the winter
When it's cold
The weather's always changing here
Without the seasons
Life would be so bare
Did you hear the swallow
He was telling you
It's time to go
Everything was beautiful
Nothing hurt
It didn't even rain
They tell me people sometimes forget
What it's like to be alone
But I know that I'll remember
When you're gone
