[Instrumental break]
She was a good companion, eyes like the Grand Canyon
She was an American beauty
She was a long goodbye, she was the best alibi
She was an American beauty
With her Wayfarers on in the summer sun
Her touch felt like a loaded gun
Wish I had held her longer
Wish I had held her long
A gorgeous vagabond, she was sweet but she was strong
She was an American beauty
She was déjà vu, she was a catch-22
She was an American beauty
Her blue eyes shine in the summer sun
Her kiss felt like a loaded gun
Wish I had held her longer
Wish I had held her long
Goodbye came like the morning sun
She fired shots from a loaded gun
Wish I had held her longer
Wish I had held her long
She was a good companion
Eyes like the Grand Canyon
She was an American beauty
American Beauty was written by Drew Holcomb.
American Beauty was produced by Joe Pisapia.
Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors released American Beauty on Tue Jan 27 2015.
In an interview with the student-run Baylor Lariat, Drew Holcomb said the song is “about validating, for myself and everyone else, that first taste of thinking you found that person to share your life with. Even for just a short time, it’s such a drug.”
