THE COWSILLS
"Beautiful Beige"
(Cowsill-Kornfeld)

You told me, my friend, what's on you mind,
Now I'll tell you what's on mine.

Black is black and white is white,
You're so hung up on day and night,
Is it that important to you?
Can you let the dawn come shinin' through?
A searchin' hand says come and greet me,
Be a friend and don't defeat me,
You say that the day is lighter,
I say that the stars can be bright too.

Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind,
(Beautiful Beige come into your mind,)
Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind,
(Like it came into mine).

A violet in the field is growing,
You're afraid to touch not knowing
That it's petals cannot burn you,
Don't you think it's time you learn to love?
Your window sill is lined with lilies
And other white assorted sillies,
Planted within golden cups,
But is there any diff'rence up above?

Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind,
(Beautiful Beige come into your mind,)
Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind,
(Like it came into mine).

Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind.
(Beautiful Beige come into your mind.)
Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind,
(Like it came into mine).

Let Beautiful Beige come into your mind.
(Beautiful Beige come into your mind.)
(Beautiful Beige come into your mind.)

[Repeat and fade]
