The first time that I fell to pieces I was
Strung out over the moonwalk and you
I was confused by your shiftin' face and
By the changin' key of your tone
Waitin' for your call to be my mistress
My paramour, oh, you be my ownYou're so beautiful when you're wrong
Yeah, so beautiful when you're wrong
You turn me on and now you're stringin' me along
Still so beautiful, oh, so beautifulOne day the laws of love and justice will
Bring you to the prison I call my home
Can't forget the past without gettin' busted
Now you have to find a way on your own
So my carbon web is sneakin' up behind you
And your sorry fate will ultimately find youYou're so beautiful when you're wrong
Still so beautiful when you're wrong
You turn me on and now you're stringin' me along
You're so beautiful, still so beautifulThough she refused to feel me mind
Tell about me clearer mind and want
But I long for her as the sails for the sea
Or the touch is for the morning sun
I wanna be your only oneUnderneath, at the late night party, your doorbell
Passed out drunk, the next time you find me
I'll be sure not to wander off too far
But won't be the last time that you blind me
Let me up a creak in a stormy side
Needed you and you were goneYou're so beautiful when you're wrong
Still so beautiful when you're wrongYou say you never had to cause me any harm
Or confusion
So I'm leavin', oh, this is my freedom song
So beautiful when you're wrong
