You're So Beautiful

John Denver · Portrait [1999]

Born on a quiet morning.

Just a dream in someone's eyes

A dream that's like a promise meant to be.

Giving rise to speculation

on a place called paradise.

If I've ever been there

it's when you were with me.



You're so beautiful.

I can't believe my eyes each time I see you again.

You're so beautiful

That I'm in paradise each time I see you again.



I remember some hidden valley

Where the skies are never still

and alpine meadows burn in the evening light.

I remember the path to glory

and the way around the hill.

And I remember true love's eyes

shining in the night.



You're so beautiful.

I can't believe my eyes each time I see you again.

You're so beautiful

That I'm in paradise each time I see you again.



And if paradise is everything you see,

Then the place you must be coming from is ecstasy.



You're so beautiful.

I can't believe my eyes each time I see you again.

You're so beautiful

That I'm in paradise each time I see you again.

I just want to see you again.

I want to be with you again.

I just need to love you again.

I just want to touch you again.

I just need to love you again.
