Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme, I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
[Verse 2]
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't right
[Verse 3]
Oh, and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
[Verse 4]
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?
[Verse 5]
He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
[Verse 6]
And do I try to change him
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight
Hold on tight
[Verse 7]
Oh, 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
[Verse 8]
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?
[Verse 9]
I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waiting for some kind of miracle
Waiting so long, so long
[Verse 10]
He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the ends, he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take
[Verse 11]
Oh, 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
[Verse 12]
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?
[Verse 13]
He's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
Beautiful (Beautiful disaster)
Beautiful disaster
