lyrics

The sun rises over West Virginia hills
The steam rolls off the barn’s tin roof
Your spirit moves through this world
I can see it go where it wills
But I can’t explain the beauty
That I see in you

It’s like ground under my bear feet
Or the coolness of the morning dew
I can’t explain the beauty
That I see in you

No I can’t explain
I said I can’t explain

Sometimes you seem so far away
It feels like together we will never be
On the telephone
I forget what I was going to say
But I remember you
In the beauty that surrounds me

It’s like tomatoes in the garden
Or bees buzzing round the blooms
A hike to the top of the mountain
Sleeping on the ground under the moon
I can’t explain the beauty
That I see in you.

It’s like sunshine in South Bend winter
Or a smile when I’m feeling blue
I can’t explain the beauty
That I see in you.

No I can’t explain
I said I can’t explain

Sometimes you seem so far away
It feels like together we will never be
On the telephone
I forget what I was going to say
But I remember you
In the beauty that surrounds me

Whenever I get lonely
And I don’t know what to do
I just think of how you love me
And how we’ll see each other soon
Oh how you love me
And how I love you

Love is kind and patient
Not jealous, pompous or rude
Not inflated or selfish
Nor over injury it broods
It does not rejoice in wrong doing
But rejoices in the truth
It bears all
Believes all
Hopes all
Endures all those silly things we do

Love never fails
No I can’t explain
How love never fails
No I can’t explain
How love never fails
No matter what you do
And I can’t explain the beauty
That I see in you
No I can’t explain
How love never fails
No I can’t explain
How love never fails
