Beautiful Boy

You're a beautiful boy with all your little toys



Your eyes have seen the world though you're only four years old



And your tears are streaming even when you're smiling



Please never be afraid to cry



You're a beautiful boy with all your little ploys



Your mind has changed the world and you're now forty years old



You got all you can carry and still feel somehow empty



Don't ever be afraid to fly



All you beautiful boys creating multiple plays



You like to fence in your world and settle down when you're old



You can run from pole to pole and never scratch your soul



Don't be afraid to go to hell and back



Don't be afraid to go to hell and back



Don't be afraid to be afraid
