Wayne Jackson Everything Is Beautiful
Keep your eyes skimmed on the distance.
The rail stretches out for miles.
You'll be leaving on the next train.
You won't be wasting any smiles.
And if the sun gets in your eyes,
Don't you stall
Because sun blind tears will softly dry,
As they fall.
Everything, everything remains,
And in its own way.
Everything is beautiful today.
Telephone wires on the left side.
Scratch your name across the sky
Your head's a town where no one sleeps,
Or comes to call.
And as you slip past careless streets,
Can you recall.
Everything, everything remains,
And in its own way.
Everything is beautiful today.
She's got wings of silken sheen,
And she will sting you when she's mean,
But when she feels too much you can see.
Everything, everything remains,
And in its own way.
Everything is beautiful today.
