Natural Beauty
Copyright © 2010 Kelli Caldwell
ROUGH A CAPPELLA VERSION!
The colors of the rocks along
The bottom of the river are amazing
Red and orange and green
Smiling up as they are reflecting the sun
But when I take them out
And they are drying now
They’re also fading
And I am changing how the river wants to run
Chorus:
Oh Beauty
Where it’s meant to be
Beauty
Taken naturally
There’s no comparing
Lyric notes: verse/chorus start ... I like to wander in a creek, looking for cool rocks, but you know how they always look better and more brilliant when you spot them, but when you take them out, their colors are never quite the same as they were where you found them.
