Since this song is about beauty, I tried to find a beautiful chord structure, melody, and arrangement. I hope it is a beautiful journey that you take with your ears.

Our society doesn't seem to know what's beautiful anymore, or, sadly, just may not care. It seems that only the affluent can own truly beautiful things, and the rest of us just get what we can afford. It's why a Porsche is more beautiful than a Prius. And, there are less and less artisans making beautiful things by hand. Modern art looks down on beauty as being too sentimental. So, most of it, while having artistic merit otherwise, is pretty ugly. And modern architecture well, just look around your city compared to any old city in Italy, for instance, where they value beauty. How does your city stack up? This song is a plea for us all to bring back beauty in our lives, and in our world. Beauty makes us feel good, and we can all use more of that!

Put some beauty in your life
Keep some beauty in your soul
Show your beauty when you smile
Let beauty make you whole
Make some room inside your heart
Find your light and let it shine
So much beauty in the world
So much beauty yet to find
Look what we've forgotten
We used to live in Eden
Beauty all around us
Beauty through the seasons
Caring for each other
Loving without reason
Giving of ourselves without depletion
(CHORUS)
Yosemite in moonlight
Aurora Borealis
Little children dancing, oh and
All the lights of Paris
The smell of rain in springtime
A friend's un-asked-for kindness
A place where music always plays
And loneliness can't find us
(Chorus)
