She loves her mama's lemonade,
Hates the sounds that goodbyes make.
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her.
She swears that there's no difference,
Between the lies and complements.
It's all the same if everybody leaves her.
And every magazine tells her she's not good enough,
The pictures that she sees make her cry.
And she would change everything, everything just ask her.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,
And she needs someone to take her home.
She's giving boys what they want, tries to act so nonchalant,
Afraid they'll see that she's lost her direction.
She never stays the same for long,
Assuming that she'll get it wrong.
Perfect only in her imperfection.
She's not a drama queen,
She doesn't want to feel this way, only seventeen but tired
She would change everything for happy ever after.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,
But she just needs someone to take her home.
Cuz she's just the way she is, but no ones told her that's ok.
And she would change everything, everything just ask her.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,
And she would change everything for happy ever after.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,
But she just needs someone to take her home
And just needs someone to take her home.
(Beautiful Disaster by Jon McLaughlin)
Ok, so, I first heard this song while I was waiting for Robert to get out of the shower on vacation. I immediately fell in love with it. It really hit me because in a way I think the girl he's talking about is me. (of course with a few differences) But anyway, I don't want to be that girl, but right now I'm afraid I can't help it. I'd change so much if only I could feel love. I wouldn't compromise my limits that I have put on myself - limits put on out of obedience to God. However, there are so many things I would give just to have someone care for me. I want to feel those butterflies in my stomach (the good ones). I want to be able to look into his eyes (whoever he is) and know that I won't want to look into any other eyes ever again. Oh goodness, why does this song make me so darn sad and reflective. Perhaps because it's just sooo freakin' amazing.
