He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could holdAnd if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't rightOh 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 disasterHe's 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 tightOh 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 disasterI'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waiting for some kind of miracle
Waited so long
So longHe's soft to the touch
But frayed at the ends he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can takeOh '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 disasterHe's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
Beautiful (Beautiful disaster)
Beautiful disaster
