Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)

by John Lennon

Close your eyes,
Have no fear,
The monster's gone
He's on the run
And you're daddy's here

Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy,
Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep,
Say a little prayer,
Everyday, in every way,
It's getting better and better

Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Out on the ocean,
Sailing away,
I can hardly wait,
To see you come of age,
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient

'Cos it's a long way to go,
A hard road to hoe,
Yes it's a long way to go
But in the meantime ...

Before you cross the street,
Take my hand,
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans

Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep,
Say a little prayer,
Everyday, in every way,
It's getting better and better

Beautiful beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Darling darling darling
