John Lennon:
"The joy is still there when I see Sean.
He didnt come out of my belly but by God, I made his bones!
Because Ive attended to every meal,
and to how he sleeps,
and to the fact that he swims like a fish.
Thats because I took him to the Y [the swimming pool at 92nd St].
I took him to the ocean.
Im so proud of those things.
He is my biggest pride, you see."

BEAUTIFUL BOY (DARLING BOY)
Close your eyes have no fear
The monsters gone, hes on the run and your daddys here
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
.
Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer
Every day in every way its getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
.
Out on the ocean, sailing away
I can hardly wait to see you come of age
But I guess well both just have to be patient
.
Because its a long way to go, a hard row to hoe
Yes, its a long way to go, but in the meantime...
.
Before you cross the street, take my hand
Life is what happens to you while youre busy making other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Darling, darling, darling, darling Sean
