Wynn Stewart – Something Pretty lyrics

There’s something pretty in a summer rainbow
There not just colors anymore
There’s something pretty in the way the stars glow
Something I never saw before

There’s so many pretty things the whole world looks new
I never saw the sun until I fell in love with you
And now there’s something pretty in the moonlight
Or did it always glow that way
There’s something pretty in the same old moonlight
Something pretty everywhere today

There’s so many pretty things the whole world looks new
I never saw the sun until I fell in love with you
And now there’s something pretty in the moonlight
Or did it always glow that way
There’s something pretty in the same old moonlight
Something pretty everywhere today
