You could be the devil in my bed
You could be the angel in my head
You could be the voices that I hear
I'm singing along because it sounds just like you're near
Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

I could be the drug you can't resist
I could be the antidote you missed
I could be the love you hate to fear
You're filling the hole inside your heart with feeling near to me

Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

Can we make it through
Together we got to fly
Don't you know I got to fly
Cause when you're coming around I got to fly
Don't you know I want to fly

And I know
And I feel
That I could learn to hate just like you
And I know
And I feel
That you could learn to love just like me

Can we make it through together
I've got to fly

To me this is just a great song. I could never quite get what it means but i guess it kinda has to do with maybe this girl he really likes, who doesn't really like him, but he still doesn't care because he thinks that maybe if he tells her shes beautiful it might change her mind. I have the feeling im way off, but oh well. the last minute of this song is awesome. if you've never heard it, its just like a acoustic guitar and in the background its the sounded of little children, i dunno it sounds stupid but its kinda chill and relaxing

that's not part of "Beautiful", it's the intro to "Sorry, Wrong Trajectory"....totally different songs but I get the sense that they're companion pieces in that they have the same chord progression and a similar melody.

I think this song is so awesome. I think this song is talkin' about how this guy loves this girl, but she doesn't seem to want to love. It seems like all she does is hate the world, but the guy is tryin' to say, "Hey, you're beautiful to me. Maybe you can learn to love me." i dunno if that's the real meaning, but that's how i view it. This is just a great song...there's nothin' else to say

I agree with lilpunkstar85... this song is about a girl who despises life and the world, but this guy, a friend or someone who cares about her, wants her to know that she's too beautiful to hate anything. To me, *hate* is a really strong word, so he doesn't want her to use it because she's too good for that. He just wants her to appreciate life because life is *beautiful*. :)

oh the one sided love...i am so used to this in so many ways...i know that i always want to fall in love with the person who's a big fat jerk that i have no chance in the world of him loving me nack...so the part where he says "i could learn to hate just like you" is something i can completly relate to

It shows the yearning of loving someone who doesn't feel the same. And then trying to get yourself to stop loving that person. Like when he says "I could learn to hate just like you." I dont know...

This song reminds me so much of my best guy friend. He was the first one to play this for me last fall. I was crazy about him and he only saw me as a friend. This song is about one-sided love. I felt like I was always trying to convince him that I'd be good for him, like the guy in this song. Then in the Spring I felt that it applied again because he was crazy about me, and I had a boyfriend. GREAT Song!
