Light in the Piazza movie - The Beauty Is lyrics

rate me

<br>

These are very popular, in Italy.<br>

It’s the land of naked marble boys.<br>

Something we don’t see a lot in Winston-Salem,<br>

That’s the land of corduroys.<br>

<br>

I’m just a someone in an old museum.<br>

Far away from home as someone can go.<br>

And the beauty is I still meet people I know.<br>

Hello.<br>

<br>

This is wanting something, this is reaching for it, <br>

This is wishing that a moment would arrive.<br>

This is taking chances, this is almost touching, what the beauty is.<br>

I don’t understand a word they’re saying, <br>

I’m as different here as different can be.<br>

But the beauty is I still meet people like me.<br>

<br>

Everyone’s a mother here, in Italy.<br>

Everyone’s a father, or a son.<br>

I think if I had a child, I would take such care of her.<br>

Then I wouldn’t feel like one.<br>

<br>

I’ve hardly met a single soul, but I am not alone.<br>

I feel grown.<br>

This is wanting something, this praying for it, <br>

This is holding breath and keeping fingers crossed.<br>

This is counting blessings, this is wondering when I’ll see that boy again.<br>

I’ve got a feeling he’s just a someone, too.<br>

And the beauty is, when you realize, when you realize,<br>

Someone could be looking for a someone like you.<br>

<br>
