    Story Behind the Song
    This song was written from a standpoint of pain in a world that had little to offer but depression and fatigue. It speaks of a love which must someday end, and that day has come, and regrets the failure to "fly" from the constraints of this frail body. It is to God and to woman, encompassed in the metaphorical "Beautiful."

    Lyrics
    (verse 1)
    Oh Beautiful
    Tell me it’s not too late
    All the prices I’ve paid
    All the market’s red tape

    But Beautiful
    Is a sad song so bad?
    All the times that we’ve had
    All the lonely long drags

    (chorus)
    This time I want to fly
    But it hurts to feel
    This time I want to fly
    Hurts just to be real
    But this time I want to try

    (verse 2)
    And Beautiful
    Of the frequent complaints
    I don’t know what to say
    I just came here that way

    So Beautiful
    Give my stupid no heed
    All the times you could lead
    So much better than me

    (repeat chorus)

    (bridge)
    I’ll see you after this goodbye
    The one I’m going to miss goodbye
    We only get to kiss goodbye
    Tonight
