He drowns in his dreams

An exquisite extreme I know

He's as damned as he seems

but more Heaven than a heart could hold

And if I try to save him

My whole world would cave in

it just ain't right

Lord, it just ain't right

But when I don't know,

I don't know what he's after.

But he's so beautiful,

he's such a beautiful disaster.

And if I could hold on

Through the tears and the laughter,

Lord, would it be beautiful?

Or just a beautiful disaster?

He's magic and myth

as strong as what I believe

A tragedy with

More damage than a soul should see

but do I try to change him?

It's so hard not to blame him.

Hold me tight

Baby, hold me tight

But when I don't know

I don't know what he's after

But he's so beautiful

He's such a beautiful disaster

And if I could hold on

Through the tears and the laughter

Would it be beautiful?

Or just a beautiful disaster?

I'm longing for love and the logical

But he's only happy hysterical

I'm searching for some kind of miracle

Waited so long

I've waited so long

He's soft to the touch

But frayed at the end he breaks

He's never enough

And still he's more than I can take

But when I don't know

I don't know what he's after

But he's so beautiful

He's such a beautiful disaster

And if I could hold on

Through the tears and the laughter

Would it be beautiful?

Or just a beautiful disaster?

He's beautiful,

Lord, he's so beautiful,

he's beautiful
