We Were Beautiful - Belle & Sebastian

Written by：Christopher Thomas Geddes/Stuart Lee Murdoch/Stephen Thomas Jackson/Sarah Ann Martin/Robert Michael Kildea/Richard William Colburn

I was black I could be here

Voices' telling me

Walk away from mess within

Go where was meant to go far away from those I know

Cause I'm definitely below

Where in glass sing

With the grand coffee being

When the women are a bleak

And the boys are paper things

Reck bears upon that jean

Where are on the eyes I looking in

Raise above for present day

Raise above for popularly

I see you the way you are

I see you it's gone

We were beautiful before lights went down

We were beautiful before the day until tell they're upside down

We were beautiful before we gone wise

We were beautiful waste time I'm lying laying low

I'm hanging on the line

I'm junior all the time

I am use some merry till I'm cold

I could try my best to heal all the emptiness of your feel

And they giving I will be alight

We are after round the roots

Nothing on it tap our boots

Where into the mess around the waste

We were selling our scots

We were healing over thoughts

We are living at the pleasure that we lost

We were beautiful before lights went down

We were beautiful before the years they tell they're upside down

We were beautiful for all the time as kids

I was tied to the sun who now I will tie it too

If you listen to the night

Waking every mad man to fight

Here's the fault is making us

But the people all in the mute

Sleeping silence in the rooms

Growing bodies with the sleep

Making plans and set the height

Making laugh to share our face

We were beautiful before lights went down

We were beautiful before the years they tell they're upside down

We were beautiful before we gone wise

We were beautiful it's time I can feel it now

We were beautiful before lights went down

We were beautiful before the years they tell they're upside down

We were beautiful for all the time I state

I was tied it to the sun I will tie it to your face
