The Beauty of a Dove

The Beauty Of A Dove

It's sad. So sad I want to cry
 A little girl grows up-
 Then waves good-bye

 She finds within her heart, a love
 So deep, so true-
 The beauty of a dove

 She laughs with joy abound,
 But it's not there-
 For is it love she's found ?

 She's scared the love she's found
 is not real,
 But it is no dream-

 Her wound will someday heal
 But suddenly she's not afraid of love,
 For it has come-

 The beauty of a dove
 I want to cry, I want so much to cry,
 She's found her love-
 Though someday she will die

 But I won't cry for her,
 She's found it, she really has-
 The beauty of a dove.
