Too Beautiful

Too beautiful And I laid down in fields of gold Only to rest my head And I walked home On a warm summer's day With buttercups and Queen Ann lace For my bed And I ran until I could run no more And I jumped in, to an icy cold stream And as the water ran across my body I wondered Is this all just a dream Oh, my darling Oh, my darling It's too beautiful to be And I looked out across a quiet lake Echoing the sounds of night And I watched the yellow grass dance to a symphony Early in the morning light And I walked down the street Crowded by faces and places I've never known Foreign lines, sketched by foreign designs Seep through my body To the bone Oh, my darling Oh, my darling It's too beautiful to be And when the night Comes to tame me I won't fight 'Cause it's no good to fight when you're down When the night Comes to claim me I won't fight 'Cause it's no good to fight when you're down No it's no good to fight when you're down Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling It's too beautiful to be
