You Are Too Beautiful Lyrics - Hawksley Workman

I walked through the airport alone 

I looked at my phone 'cause it keeps me company 

I called you as I hired the car 

To ask you "how far is it there from you to me?" 

And I wrote directions on the back of an old magazine 

[Chorus] 

But you are too beautiful to be in bed with me 

Yeah you are too beautiful to be in bed with me 

If you could see the thoughts I see 

If you could see my thoughts baby you'd agree 

I write this song lovingly on 

An old girlfriend's guitar 

That she wants me to return 

On the 12th floor you took off your clothes 

New York in the snow and our bodies left to burn 

Soft gentle rebel 

Let the sun pierce the moments of spring 

[Chorus] 

if you could see the thoughts I see 

If you could see my thoughts 

If you could see my thoughts baby then you'd agree 

'cause you are too beautiful to be in bed with me 

'cause you are too beautiful to be in bed with me 

if you could see the thoughts I see 

If you could see my thoughts 

If you could see the face I see 

If you could see my face 

If you could see my face
