Beautiful Thing

By richard manuel and rick danko

Ive told you once, now you should know
The reason that Im coming down.
There aint no time to repeat again;
Just need to bring it around.

We had a beautiful thing going,
You couldnt see things my way.
We had a beautiful thing going,
Something just got in our way.

And I told you once that it was rough.
I looked on you as my friend,
Because that did not seem to be good enough,
And now its time to begin.

Weve got a beautiful thing going,
I hope thats the way it will stay.
Weve got a beautiful thing going,
Nothing can stand in our way.

Fourth verse
