lyrics

Sun cascading, time is fading
Leaves fall from the sky
Tumbling cleanly, set serenely
Life is satisfied
A crystal view of vibrant hues
Beautiful and sublime
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day to die.

Time ahead unlike time before
Trace a path in the sand
Delicate lace and brutish grace
Never be back again
The wall to scale up the tangled trail
A new life to try
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day to die.

The past I’ve seen as in a dream
Those characters I played
I tramped and roved, our hearts we broke
In endless nights we laid
Through the deep of oblivion sweet
In waves of bliss and sighs
Oh a beautiful day
A beautiful day
A beautiful day to die.

In my mind I’ve spent some time
Old places & those crazy friends of mine
Some have tamed, some still strange
Some have passed on by
Lovin’ the day come what may
Pickin’ flowers, in their eyes a smile
A life to glean in days between
A kaleidoscope of the mind’s eye
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day to die.
