I’ve always been the ‘Imagine’ and ‘Woman’ girl but I find this song by John Lennon really sweet. He made this for his son with Yoko Ono, Sean. I can just imagine my husband singing the song to our son before bedtime ♥
Beautiful Boy (John Lennon)
Close your eyes,
Have no fear,
The monsters gone,
He’s on the run and your daddy’s here,
Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,
Before you go to sleep,
Say a little prayer,
Every day in every way,
It’s getting better and better,
Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,
Out on the ocean sailing away,
I can hardly wait,
To see you to come of age,
But I guess we’ll both,
Just have to be patient,
Yes it’s a long way to go,
But in the meantime,
Before you cross the street,
Take my hand,
Life is just what happens to you,
While you’re busy making other plans,
Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,
Darling,
Darling,
Darling Sean.
Here is an interview of Paul McCartney, where he obviously was holding back tears as the song was playing. 🙁
