"(She Just Happened To Be) Beautiful" lyrics

"(She Just Happened To Be) Beautiful"

Seven days of summer faded like the sun
She was old old enough to hunt me, but young enough to run
Offered her my Kingdom, she promised me the same
She covered me with laughter, I covered up my shame
I was lonely and lost all again

If I turned a different corner, spoke at different tongue
I'd never taste her wonder, so easily won
Her love was like a gun that was held against my head
She never pulled the trigger, but she left me for dead
I was hopeless and broken again

I was out of my depth, she was out of control
As I stood there in line as her next souvenir
She was out of my league, but if truth could be told
I never meant to fall for her at all
She just happened to be beautiful

Talked about our future, she hit amongst her past
I dreamed of opportunities to tear away her mask
Every time I asked her to meet up with her friends
She made-up those excuses, but never made a mence
She just faltered but kissed me again

I was out of my depth, she was out of control
As I stood there in line as her next souvenir
She was out of my league, but if truth could be told
I never meant to find her at all
She just happened to be beautiful

Seven days of summer faded like the sun
She was old enough to hunt me, still young enough to run
She justified my anger, I pacified her pain
She just covered me with laughter, I covered up my shame
I was powerless and stupid again

I was out of my depth, she was out of control
As I saved all my words for her last souvenir
She was out of my league, but if truth could be told
I never meant to fall for her at all
She just happened to be beautiful
Beautiful
