Beautiful Is (as Beautiful Does) Songtext
von The Blue Aeroplanes

Hey you is something I have to say
I see as close and golden

And love is something I have to say
Is in the eyes of the beholden

I stand here and you stand there
I can hear a siren in the air

& Beautiful is
As beautiful does

& Beautiful does
Everything

Here′s a gift, it was given to me
I carry it round continually

A flower, a record, a counterfoil
Three tons of petals make a litre of oil

& Beautiful is
As beautiful does

& Beautiful does
Everything


Looking round for a circus girl
With a black and white halo

Found in a foreign hotel
Looking for a kid of her own

Foundered in the spin of a different view
A different gravity, an independent state

What have you lived through?
What do you want to recreate?

A book of worlds
Or a book of lies?

The world is an oval
With oval eyes

Beauty is everything, beauty is love
Beauty can die outside a nightclub

Yeah suki, suki, what d'you want me to do?
Float downstream like a phoenix do

& Beautiful is
As beautiful does

& Beautiful does
Everything


Love always
Wears my shirt or did

Love always
Waits till home to phone

Love always
Likes to wait alone

Love always
Learns a new desire

Love always
Is a little liar

Love always
Bites here lip to write

Love always
Gets more hip and departs

Uh-huh
