Beautiful man
A song in the heavens
An elegant tune
A life that ended much too soon

Beautiful man
The years were like diamonds
Deep in the rough
Precious moments
Never treasured enough

Beautiful man
Gentle and wild
So like a child
So like the wind

Beautiful man
Gone from us now
But still here somehow

Beautiful man
The hands of a master
The stature of a king
Your trust in me meant everything

Beautiful man
You were graceful as mercy
Steady and true
It's your love I feel
Every time I think about you

Beautiful man
Your heart made of gold
Your sweet southern soul
So dear to the end
Beautiful man
So clearly defined
One of a kind

Beautiful man
Fearless and wise
No compromise
But willing to bend

Beautiful man
Wherever you are
We'll meet again

Beautiful man
A song in the heavens
An elegant tune
A life that ended much too soon
