He drowns in his dreams An exquisite extreme, I know He's as damned as he seems And more heaven than a heart could hold If I tried to save him My whole world could cave in It just ain't right, it just ain't right
[chorus] Oh and I don't know I don't know what he's after But he's so beautiful 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
His magic and myth As strong as what I believe A tragedy with More damage than a soul should see And do I try to change him So hard not to blame him Hold on tight, hold on tight
[chorus] Oh 'cause I don't know I don't know what he's after But he's so beautiful 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 waiting for some kind of a miracle Waiting so long 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
[chorus] Oh 'cause I don't know Don't know what he's after But he's so beautiful 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
