to me, this song is about someone you love and admire. not necessarily a lover though. this reminds me of my best friend. i think the meaning is that this "beautiful" person feels neglected by you. or that you don't appreciate your loved ones til they are gone. the "beautiful thing" to me is their soul. "Then you lay me down in clover, With their petals on my back"..when times are good and the person is all you need
