VERSE:
I walked through the airport alone,
I looked at my phone, cause it keeps me company.
I called you as I hired the car,
to ask you how far it is there from you to me.
And I wrote directions on the back of an old magazine.
CHORUS:
But you are too beautiful to be here with me.
Yeah you are too beautiful to be here with me.
If you could see the thoughts I see,
If you could see my thoughts, baby you’d agree.
VERSE:
I write this song lovingly on
an old girlfriend’s guitar that she wants me to return.
On the 12th floor you took off your clothes,
New York in the snow and our bodies left to burn.
Soft, gentle rebel let the sun pierce the moments of spring.
CHORUS:
‘Cause you are too beautiful to be here with me.
Yeah, you are too beautiful to be here with me.
If you could see the thoughts I see,
If you could see my thoughts, baby you’d agree…
BRIDGE: C Fm Am Ab G Dm G C F Dm G C F
CHORUS & OUTRO:
If you could see the thoughts I see,
If you could see my thoughts,
If you could see my thoughts, baby then you’d agree…
‘Cause you are too beautiful to be here with me.
‘Cause you are too beautiful to be here with me.
If you could see the thoughts I see,
If you could see my thoughts,
If you could see the face I see,
If you could see my face,
If you could see my face…
