The thinnest rope won't hang you It'll break and you'll be Just another pen stroke For the sunset Or the dawn Or the dawn A little girl child of x or y Who doesn't speak Who doesn't know at least at the right time And that's all anybody wants Not angel wings Not invisible things And everything's beautiful But babe not you or me Like a tower ready to fall Spinning over the ground Like the gorilla ride There's moments and minutes There's seasons and there's dreams Glued onto dreams And everything's beautiful But babe not you or me And everything's beautiful But babe not you or me You're the girl in the paperweight I barely know you You're so quiet Is there nothing In this weird perspective That'll let me breathe in The smell of Eden In your eternally open eyes I barely see you I barely see you And everything's beautiful But babe not you or me Yeah everything's beautiful But babe not you or me I barely see you I barely see you I barely see you And everything's beautiful But babe not you or me
