I WONDER IF YOU KNOW

Words and music by Danny Oertli ' 11/93

Drivin' down the highway in North Carolina
As the leaves turn to gold
I watch them fall as they dance across the skyline
Stretching out across the road
And I wonder if they know
That the scene they paint
Reaches deep inside me
As I watch their colors change
And I gaze in wonder at the grace that lies before me
And I know I'm not the same
And I wonder if they know how beautiful they are
How beautiful they are to me

I see you smile as walk through the doorway
And you glide across the room
I watch your eyes as they laugh with a brilliance
A brilliance I have never known
And I wonder if you know
That something in you
Reaches deep inside me
And I'm taken by the way you move
And I gaze in wonder at the grace that lies before me
And the love that shines in you
And I wonder if you know how beautiful you are

I wonder if you know how beautiful you are
How beautiful you are to me

Well, I've seen the sunrise
And I've seen flowers
But never before could I see
Until I saw them through your eyes
You're so beautiful to me
