CHORUS:
But Dmyou are too Gbeautiful to Cbe in bed wFith me.

If Dmyou could see the Gthoughts I see,

VERSE:
I Gwrite this song lovingly Amon
an old girlfriend's guiCtar that she wants me to reGturn.
On the G12th floor you took off your Amclothes,
New York in the Csnow and our bodies left to Gburn.
DmSoft, gentle rebel let the Bbsun pierce the moments of Gspring.
CHORUS:
'Cause Dmyou are too Gbeautiful to Cbe in bed wFith me.
