Ben Rector - Beautiful lyrics

rate me

There are days when I wake up

I don’t know what I’m doing here

I barely recognize the pair of eyes

Staring back at me in the mirror

But there was a day when I was free

Not a care that I could see

So good I barely could believe

That it was happening

Oh take me back again

When I was 16

With an open heart

Windows down in a beat up car

When I was dumb

And the world was young

And she was beautiful

She was beautiful

She was beautiful

How do we end up like this?

Living lives that we don’t care about

Too busy fixing things

On computer screens

While the grass grows green

Me, I’m screaming out

There was a day that I was free

Not a care that I could see

So good I barely could believe

That it was happening

Oh, take me back again

I was 16 with an open heart

Windows down in a beat up car

When I was dumb

And the world was young

And she was beautiful

She was beautiful

She was beautiful

She was beautiful

She was beautiful

There was a day that I was free

Not a care that I could see

So good I barely could believe

That it was happening

Oh, take me back again

When I was 16

With an open heart

Windows down in a beat up car

When I was dumb

And the world was young

The world was young

She was beautiful

She was beautiful

It was you, it was you

And you were beautiful, yeah

I was 16 with an open heart

Windows down in a beat up car

When I was dumb

And the world was young

And she was beautiful
