Lyrics
0:12Beauty is a drug and
0:14It's coursing through my veins
0:22I sit at home staring at your picture
0:25While my colleagues discuss capital gains
0:31This love's just a cloud of cigarette smoke
0:35Blows away on the wind
0:38But it stays in your throat
0:41And the coughing is worse
0:43Than ever these days
0:50You walk into the room
0:52And I can't look up at you
1:00All my concentrated efforts
1:02Added up to one big thing
1:04I never meant to do
1:09My heart's been misfiled
1:11By the U S Postal Service
1:14All these people with
1:15Their expectations make me so nervous
1:19And people like them could never be
1:21Like people like you
1:27You're too bright for me
1:32I'm too dumb for you
1:37In the night I see your face in the moon
1:46You're the one who stands rock
1:51Solid in the shifting sands
1:56And I'm a bad bad man
2:01With a place in my heart for you
2:09I got to the place where secret things are sold
2:18Thunder in the distance
2:20And it sounds like it's a million years old
2:28I see your hair like a waterfall falling
2:32Feel like a long drunk
2:34In the parking lot bawling
2:37And I don't know how
2:39This house got so incredibly cold
2:47I can't explain it and nobody cares to know
2:56Long-dead women call
2:58My name from deep inside my radio
3:06I set surrounded by my money and my glory
3:10Numbly re-telling my little pointless life story
3:14And the chandeliers winked as if to say
3:20"We know"
3:25And I've confessed all my sins
3:30I'm just the type who never ever wins
3:35And I pray to God every weekend
3:41I fit it in
3:45And I've kept you waiting so long
3:48But everything's gonna be different
3:51When I finish this song
3:54And I know myself better than anyone
3:58Who's to say I'm wrong
4:04You're too bright for me
4:09I'm too dumb for you
4:14In the night I see your face in the moon
4:23You're the one who stands rock
4:28Solid in the shifting sands
4:33And I'm a bad bad man
4:38With a place in my heart for you
Beauty is a drug and It's coursing through my veins I sit at home staring at your picture While my colleagues discuss capital gains This love's just a cloud of cigarette smoke Blows away on the wind But it stays in your throat And the coughing is worse Than ever these days You walk into the room And I can't look up at you All my concentrated efforts Added up to one big thing I never meant to do My heart's been misfiled By the U S Postal Service All these people with Their expectations make me so nervous And people like them could never be Like people like you You're too bright for me I'm too dumb for you In the night I see your face in the moon You're the one who stands rock Solid in the shifting sands And I'm a bad bad man With a place in my heart for you I got to the place where secret things are sold Thunder in the distance And it sounds like it's a million years old I see your hair like a waterfall falling Feel like a long drunk In the parking lot bawling And I don't know how This house got so incredibly cold I can't explain it and nobody cares to know Long-dead women call My name from deep inside my radio I set surrounded by my money and my glory Numbly re-telling my little pointless life story And the chandeliers winked as if to say "We know" And I've confessed all my sins I'm just the type who never ever wins And I pray to God every weekend I fit it in And I've kept you waiting so long But everything's gonna be different When I finish this song And I know myself better than anyone Who's to say I'm wrong You're too bright for me I'm too dumb for you In the night I see your face in the moon You're the one who stands rock Solid in the shifting sands And I'm a bad bad man With a place in my heart for you
