[Chorus]
How beautiful you are
And how strange
How beautiful you are
And how far away
[Verse 1]
You who woke in the golden morning
You who walked in the soft rain
You who shine like the morning star
How beautiful you are
You who buried all your secrets
You who laughed in the great hall
You who smiled and no one noticed
How beautiful you are
You heard choirs in the engine
You saw armies in the fire
You alone who stayed and waited
How beautiful you are
[Pre-Chorus]
And it won't be long, it won't be long
Till I see you smiling
It won't be long till I see you smile
[Chorus]
How beautiful you are
And how strange
How beautiful you are
And how far away
[Verse 2]
You who laughed in the face of death
You and who's army?
You who kissed the poet's breath
How beautiful you are
You who came in the golden river
You who drank from the deep weel
You who dreamed in the dark water
How beautiful you are
Given to me, given to me to see you so clearly
GIven to me see so clear
[Chorus]
How beautiful you are
And how strange
How beautiful you are
And how far away
