"Beautiful Boy" by John Lennon for his son Sean

"Beautiful Boy" by John Lennon
Written by: John Lennon

For: Sean Lennon.

Julian, Sean's older half-brother,Hey Jude", initially "Hey Jules", was a cheer-up from McCartney in the midst of his parents divorce. This track, however, written for Lennon's only child with Yoko Ono, a tender in its message.  

Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster's gone
He's on the run and your daddy's here Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way, it's getting better and better Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy Out on the ocean sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient
'Cause it's a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes, it's a long way to go
But in the meantime Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way, it's getting better and better Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy Darling, darling, darling
Darling Sean (Goodnight Sean, I'll see you in the morning)
