All This Beauty

All this beauty,
You might have to close your eyes
And slowly open wide.
All this beauty, we traveled all night.
We drank the ocean dry,
And watched the sun rise.

You can ask about it, but nobody knows the way.
No breadcrumb trail to follow through your days.
It takes an axe, sometimes a feather,
In the sunshine and bad weather.
It's a matter of getting deeper in, any way you can.

All this beauty,
You might have to close your eyes
And slowly open wide.
All this beauty, we traveled all night.
We drank the ocean dry,
And watched the sun rise.

I can see you're new awake.
Let me assure you friend:
Every day is ice cream and chocolate cake,
And what you make of it, let me say
You get what you take from it so be amazed,
And never stop, never stop, never stop
You gotta be brave.

'Cause all this beauty,
You might have to close your eyes
And slowly open wide,
And watch the sun rise.
