| BEAUTIFUL GIRL
Are you alright
Is there a light
Can you still hear me where you are
Are you so fine
That you can slip between the lines
You're such a Beautiful Beautiful Girl
You make the sky come down
You make the earth go round
You're such a Beautiful Beautiful Girl
And when you walk in the room
You make the winter bloom
You're such a beautiful Beautiful Girl
They want your soul
But you can float away
A flock of angels just above your head
Can hear your every sigh
And love you when you cry
You're such a beautiful Beautiful Girl
You make the sky come down
You make the earth go round
You're such a Beautiful beautiful Girl
And when you walk in the room
You make the winter bloom
You're such a beautiful beautiful Girl
You drive your daddy mad
You make your momma sad
You're such a beautiful, beautiful Girl
You make the wise unsure
You make the rich feel Poor…
WILDERNESS: TRACK BY TRACK
“I like that this song is dark and light. It’s about talking to a young girl, someone who is disappearing rather than facing her situation. I’m the older girl, reaching out to her in the first lyric: ‘Are you all right? Is there a light?’ But she’s not; even that fast guitar part is saying, ‘Don’t just go away with your addiction. Come back and bust out!’ It’s like talking to Sleeping Beauty, telling her to wake up--not in the days of white dresses, but now, in the street. And off course, I’m actually talking to the young woman inside of me…” |
