Lyrics Beautiful - Ben Rector

Beautiful

There are days when I wake up
That I don’t know what I’m doing here
I barely recognize the pair of eyes staring back at me in the mirror
There was a day when I was free
Not a care that I could see
So good I barely could believe that it was happening
Oh take me back again
When I was sixteen with an open heart
Windows down in a beat up car
When I was dumb and the world was young and she was beautiful
She was beautiful
She was beautiful
How do we end up like this?
Living lives that we don’t care about?
Too busy fixing things on computer screens
While the grass grows green
Me, I’m screaming out
There was a day when I was free
Not a care that I could see
So good I barely could believe that it was happening
Oh take me back again
