Beautiful Thing

Olivia Newton-John

Treadin' water, killin' time 
Inspiration, hard to find 
Never noticed, the symphony 
And the music's playing 
Just for me 
Precious moment 
Time stood still 
And it feels like so long since I felt 
The sun on my face 
Why did it take so long 
To find this place 
If it were not for this 
I'd never have known or felt 
Such a beautiful thing 
And all I ever wanted seems so shallow 
Suddenly I see reality 
And the picture's coming into focus 
Right in front of me 
For just a moment 
Time stood still 
And it feels like so long since I felt 
The sun on my face 
Why did it take so long 
To find this place 
If it were not for this 
I'd never have known or felt 
Such a beautiful thing 
Every job in life you gotta dig down low 
Wouldn't feel so strong but for sorrow 
And it feels like so long since I felt 
The sun on my face 
Why did it take so long 
To find this place 
If it were not for this 
I'd never have known 
Never have known 
Never have known or felt 
Such a beautiful thing
