Pretty the pictures on your skin
Pretty the person you have been to me
Pretty the scars upon your head
Pretty the lovely words you said to me
How did, how did, how did you get to be so pretty? (2x)
Ponder the possibilities
Longings that drive me to my knees again
Your words drip from your lips like wine
Healing the deepest wounds of mine again
If I, if I, if I could only be so pretty (2x)
And you take me in your arms, as you fall asleep
I’m captured by the charms of what I could be
Cause you loved me when nobody else would
You loved me when nobody else would
You loved me when nobody else would
And I know you make me better than I am
Better than I am
You loved me when nobody else would
You loved me when nobody else would
You loved me when nobody else would
And I know you make me better than I am
How did, how did, how did you go and make me pretty? (3x)
