Beautiful Girl

I could not ask for more beautiful things
Could not dream of truer eyes
Could not want to touch a softer hand
But I also realize

That I am not the man to hold you
Every second more I stay
I become the thief of all the things
This is not the time to give away

You beautiful girl
You beautiful girl

You said you think that I give up too soon
On the nice girls that I find
So I stayed here, and we waited
For love to ripen like the wine

Did I stay because I'm lonely
Did I stay because I care
All I know is I would rather take a bullet
Than hurt what I hold dear

You beautiful girl
Beautiful girl

And the hardest pain is leaving
It'd be so simple just to stay
But the truth it is the loving thing
So it's best for me to walk away

Because I always break what's fragile
Because I always break what's fragile
I always break what's fragile
I always break what's fragile

Beautiful girl
Beautiful girl
Beautiful girl
Beautiful girl
