Beautiful Girl
Appears on: Photographs, Photographs [Remastered]
Lyrics:
I could not ask for
A more beautiful face
I could not dream of truer eyes
I could not want the touch of softer hands
But I also realize
That I am not the man to hold you
And every second more I stay
I become the thief of all the things
Now is not the time to give away
You beautiful girl, beautiful girl
You said you think that I give up too soon
On the nice girls that I find
So I stayed here, and we waited
For love to ripen like the wine
Did I stay because I’m lonely?
Did I stay because I care?
All I know is I would rather take a bullet
That hurt what I hold dear
You beautiful girl, beautiful girl
And the hardest thing is leaving
It’d be so simple just to stay
But the truth it is the loving thing
So it’s time for me to walk away
Because I always break what’s fragile
You beautiful girl
