You're drinking up the sun under its gaze
You're showing everyone your pride of place
And that's natural
You're delicate and cruel
 no hint of shame
You play us and forget us and forget we're both the same
You're a temporary bloom
Like a sunbeam across the room
And when your beauty fades
You'll be lonely

You're climbing out the dirt and up the fence

Summoning your thorns in common sense
And that's natural
They're brushing me aside for better looks

I'm yours, and you're mine
And when I'm on your arm its off the books
You're red as blood, deep as the sea
And when your beauty fades
You'll be lonely

I'm taking in the sky
Comet going by
Through a million stars
All fields that bloom decay
Meteors burn away
Time makes you
Time takes you
When your beauty fades
When your beauty fades
When your beauty fades
You'll be lonely
