(I Don’t Want to Destroy) Our Beautiful Thing

Out of sight, out of mind
Not a chance
Read the words
And it's true appreciation that she sends

And once again I'll behold you through
A polished crystal lens
When I see you through the eyes of your friends

I don't want to destroy our beautiful thing
I don't want to destroy our beautiful thing

I'm a kid in the candy store licking what I like
You are tolerant as stone
But beneath the surface
I know you hurt
I can hear it in your voice on the phone

I don't want to destroy our beautiful thing
I don't want to destroy our beautiful thing

I've been so far away
So far from my home
Three months in West L.A
And my mind needs a comb
In need of a heart transplant
And a bedroom to roam
And you're still the only dedication in my tone

Out of sight, out of mind
Not a chance
Read the words
And it's true appreciation that I send
Because once again I'll behold you through
A polished crystal lens
When I see you through the eyes of your friends

I don't want to destroy our beautiful thing
