For the Beauty Songtext
von Tindersticks

For the beauty
Give me something to ease
For it′s the beauty
That's got its claws in me

There′s an ache in our steps
As we walk through the streets
But it's the beauty that stops me
And brings me to my knees

For the pain
We live with our pain
Each day
We manage our pain

In the hum of its song
There's comfort and calm
But it′s the beauty that sears me
And tears at my heart


You stepped off the ledge
Clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell
To throw yourself again

Just to feel, to love
To live, to try
To feel, to live
To love, to try

For the beauty
Give me something please
For it′s the beauty
That's killing me

I can′t trust it anymore
Or rely on its truth
It pulls me right to it
Then makes a show of its abuse

You stepped off the ledge
Clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell
To throw yourself again


You stepped off the ledge
Clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell
To throw yourself again

Just to feel, to love
To live, to try
To feel, to live
To love, to try
To feel, to love
To live, to try
To feel, to live
To love, to fly
