Beautiful Boy

On July 9, 1986 at 8:17 PM this 'beautiful boy' entered the world, and my life changed forever. I know it's a cliche, but it was the best day of my life. Every time I hear this song my eyes tear up. Luv ya J-!
BEAUTIFUL BOY
Close your eyes,
Have no fear,
The monsters gone,
He's on the run and your daddy's here,

Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,

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

Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,

Out on the ocean sailing away,
I can hardly wait,
To see you to come of age,
But I guess we'll both,
Just have to be patient,
Yes it's a long way to go,
But in the meantime,

Before you cross the street,
Take my hand,
Life is just what happens to you,
While your busy making other plans,

Beautiful,
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful Boy,
Darling,
Darling,
Darling J-.
By John Lennon

  4. Great song - very fitting for a beloved child's birthday. Have you seen "Mr. Holland's Opus"?
    This song reminds me of that movie every time that I hear it. I hope that J has a very wonderful birthday!

  7. I love that song...my Dad use to sing that to me when I was kid. He use to be in a band and was a HUGE John Lennon fan (people even said he looked like him). Thanks for reminding me of a special time in my life.
