darren hanlon - i wish that i was beautiful for you lyrics

Loading...

i wish that i was beautiful for you
i wish that i inspired tiny fireworks inside the way you do
so delicately made
a prayer left unprayed
before the morning sky fades
up to blue
and i wish that i was beautiful for you

i wish that somehow i could find a pill
for a quick fix modern tonic that would change me with one swallow i would

kill
watch folks line up to pay
stare at me all day
but i’d turn them all away
if that be thy will
one tiny little innocuous pill

but a wish is just a pin
in a swimming pool of needles
if for one night you need the room
i wish to be your tomb
you can lie in me

is it possible i’ve other things you need
but to be worthy of a single page out of one of those magazines you read
as glossy as a mirror
but mirrors never lie
they’re difficult on the eye
it’s true
and i wish that i was beautiful for you

i dreamed that we were travelling on a bus
speeding along an unnamed plain towards somewhere and nowhere there was us
our hands lay useless in our laps
like beetles on their backs

we came to a stretch of road where a fire
had burned the edges all along it looked as though the highway wore eyeliner
you kissed me by surprise
when i opened my eyes
you’d turned into some old guy
i screamed
but don’t forget of all these things i’ve only dreamed

if for one night you need the room
i will be your tomb
you can lie in me
