Beautiful

How did we come to this?

When did we reach that fork in the road

That carried us from our home?

Where did we go wrong?

How could we lose the words to our song

When we were writing it all along?

And how could something beautiful

Turn into something ugly

And change right before our eyes?

And how could something wonderful

Just fade away and slip into

Something that we try to hide from?

What we've become; a mere shadow of the lovers we used to be

Don't you see?

Where do we go from here?

Can we reclaim all that we have lost

And start all over again?

Can we afford the cost?

Should we risk the chance of losing it all

Or walk away now as friends?

And how does something beautiful

Just fade into a memory

Stored there for a rainy day?

And how does something wonderful

Get tossed aside or thrown away

Like something that is broken or frayed?

What a mess we've made

Shards of hearts they splinter beneath our feet

Yet we refuse to retreat

So think about tomorrow

And forgive all the wrongs of today

We should know better than to

Let our pride get in the way

We can make it better

We can save what we have

If we try to rise above our faults

We can make it beautiful

Turn from something ugly

And change right before our eyes

And we could make it wonderful

Just turn our backs on yesterday

And focus on the love that we've made

'Cause we have something beautiful

It's something that's invaluable,

Like waking to a brand new day

What we have is wonderful

It's sublime, it's magical.divine, it's beautiful
