[Verse 1]
Early route
Yellow rows
You climb in
Hoodie
Half-closed eyes
Cracking jokes at every pothole
I pretend I’m fine
But my heart replies
You talk about him like it’s all alright
Still
You’re stealing fries off of my plate
We laugh too long at the stoplight
Both of us knowing this came too late
[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
Smart
Childish
And trouble for me
We’re almost something
Almost more
But “almost” is all we can be
I can’t touch you
Can’t call you mine
Still you’re sitting there under my skin
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
And I’m falling where I can’t begin
[Verse 2]
You lean back
Feet on the dash
Sing off-key
And I sing along
You’re talking dreams
I’m doing math
Counting all the ways this feels wrong
Your phone lights up
You angle it away
Say his name like it’s some old song
We trade glances we can’t explain
We’ve been drifting too close
Too long
[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
Smart
Childish
And trouble for me
We’re almost something
Almost more
But “almost” is all we can be
I can’t touch you
Can’t call you mine
Still you’re sitting there under my skin
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
And I’m falling where I can’t begin
[Bridge]
If this was different
If timing was kind
Would you ride shotgun
With your hand in mine?
But the ring of his name
Is a line on the road
So I smile
Hit the brakes
Let the feeling unload (oh)
[Chorus]
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
Smart
Childish
And trouble for me
We’re almost something
Almost more
But “almost” is all we can be
I won’t break you
Won’t cross that line
So I’ll keep this quiet within
You’re so beautiful
Wonderful
My favorite “what if” I’ll never begin
