Everything Is Beautiful (In Its Own Way).

Lyrics and vocals: American country singer, songwriter, musician, actress, and philanthropist Ms Dolly Rebecca Parton.

Everything Is Beautiful (In Its Own Way).

When I look out over a green field of clover,
Or watch the sunset at the end of the day,
I get kind of moody when I see such beauty,
Everything’s beautiful in it’s own way.
When I see a fountain flow from a mountain,
Or see April showers bring flowers to May,
I can’t help but ponder, life is such a wonder,
An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way.
Words can’t describe what I feel inside,
When I see the beauty in each coming day.
What my eyes behold can’t be bought or sold,
An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way.
When I see the clouds form a black summer wind storm,
That uproots the harvest and hurls it away,
In the midst of such anger, destruction and danger,
The storm’s even beautiful in it’s own way.
When I see the leaves drop from off of the treetops,
Or watch the snow fall on a cold winter’s day,
My thoughts seem to wander into the blue yonder,
God, made each thing beautiful in it’s
own way.
Words can’t describe what I feel inside,
When I see the beauty in each coming day.
What my eyes behold can’t be bought or sold,
An’ everything’s beautiful in it’s own way.
In it’s own way.
In it’s own way.
