The Most Beautiful Thing

I once wrote a song for a person I know.
They told me that it's time I go to
See the place that they always used to talk about.
So I went on my way but halfway there
I stopped and I looked and lying there
Was the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen.
So I bent to the ground to pick it up
But the weight of it was far too much.
I hoped that nobody else would ever see
The most beautiful thing right in front of me.
Then I said "Oh, the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen
Won't you get yourself on up and walk with me?"
Then I said "Oh, we're a hundred, hundred miles from the world we used to see. Won't you get yourself on up and walk with me?"
Just walk with me.
So on I walked through the rain and the snow.
On I walked and on we go just me and the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
But the snow got thicker, fog filled the air.
Rain storms flooded lands everywhere!
But on I walked, hoping to find the promised land!
I protected it through the night and the say.
Fought for it in the clouds and the gray.
Oh beautiful thing baby can't you see that you and I were made to be?
Then I said "Oh, most beauitful thing that I've ever seen don't fall behind, come back here and walk with me."
Then I said "Oh, well it seems like you've been quiet near, so why don't we stay here? Love talk to me."
Then it said: "I can't believe that you protected me after all that we've been through. It's hard for me to believe that you'd risk your life for me..."
Oh most beautiful thing I've ever seen; don't you know? You and I were made to be.
Oh, most beautiful thing I've ever seen come along, sing this song and walk with me!
Then I said "Oh, we're a hundred, hundred miles from the world that we once knew, so why don't we walk along just me and you?"
The most beautiful thing!

April's Song

Do you remember when I met you?
The sun came out that day.
All the bad feelings fell behind you.
The crocuses came out to stay with
Your smile keeps us together.
Because that's all I want to do when I'm with you!
Apr-all I want to do is thank you for the
Grand times we've shared.
Apr-all I want to say is goodbye though it's too late.
Don't think that I don't care about you.
Couldn't stop all the bad feelings comin' in.
As cold as you could be.
You turned yourself around, you changed for the better.
For all to see!
You make the flowr's bloom
You make the trees turn green with envy when you smile.
When you take your time
When you do things right,
Because April showers bring May flowers.
Apr-all I want to do is thank you for the
Gran times we've shared.
Apr-all I want to say is goodbye though it's too late.
Don't think that I don't care about you.
Those were the days that it was too cold to go outside.
We lost that time together, but I know you didn't mean it.
Oh April, you must know:
All I want to do is thank you for the
Grand times we've shared.
Apr-all I want to say is goodbye though it's too late you must know that:
I'll stay.
I'll be right here, April. I'll see you next year.
April you must know that I'll be right here waiting when you
Come back to me. When you
Come back to me. Say you'll
Come back to me next year!
All I want to do is tell you I love you.
I can't wait to see you again next year!

May I be so blunt to say I'm glad you're here?
May I say it's always great this time of year?
Dance around or picnic on the hill.
Do your worst. Do your best. Do what you will.
Maybe I will.
Maybe I won't.
Maybe it's a thrill.
Maybe it's a want.
Whatever it may be: May be.
May we forget all our work and go play?
May we bring our future hopes with us to May Day?
There's a line of hope that's strung for you.
We will do what all young kids will do.
Maybe we will.
Maybe we won't.
Maybe it's a thrill.
Maybe it's our want.
Whatever it may be: May be.
