The Beach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look over to your house and then I come right through
In my mind you′ll always be somebody smiling cheek-to-cheek
Lost you in the summer and I couldn't breathe
If I could go back again, I′d hold you there by my side
Tell you now don't you worry
You going to be all right
It doesn't really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you′re from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful
It doesn′t really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you're from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful
Said goodbye to you out on the stones
The words I never said just left a hole
And I sang "Yellow" just for you
I sang it loud, I sang it true
Now I hate that song
Where did we go wrong?
It doesn′t really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you're from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful
It doesn′t really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you're from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful
And I′ll blame it all on me
For your insecurities
And I'm dreaming of a place
Where you could be happy
And if I could then I would
Go back to the days you were by my side
Singing you will be alright
It doesn't really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you′re from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful
It doesn′t really matter who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you're from, what you got
All you got its enough now
U. R. Beautiful

The singer thinks of the person they loved in the summertime and reminisces about the moments they shared together. The first verse talks about how the singer lost the person they loved in the summer, and it left them breathless. They wish they could go back and hold their loved one by their side, telling them everything would be alright. The chorus repeats the phrase "U. R. Beautiful," and emphasizes that it doesn't matter where you're from, who you love, or what you have, because all that matters is that you are beautiful.
The second verse has a more melancholic tone, with the singer reflecting on how they said goodbye to their loved one, leaving an unspoken emptiness that they can't fill. They sing "Yellow" for the person they lost, but now they hate the song and wonder where they went wrong. The last verse has the singer taking responsibility for their lost love's insecurities, wishing they could go back to the days when they were together, singing that their loved one will be alright. Overall, the song's message is to remind listeners that they are beautiful and that it doesn't matter where they come from or who they love.

This time in the summer, I think of you
During the summertime, I recall and think about you
Look over to your house and then I come right through
I glance in the direction of your home and then come straight to you
In my mind you'll always be somebody smiling cheek-to-cheek
In my thoughts, you will always be a person happily smiling
Lost you in the summer and I couldn't breathe
I lost you in the summertime and it was difficult for me to cope
If I could go back again, I'd hold you there by my side
If I had the ability to relive the past, I would keep you right by my side
Tell you now don't you worry
I want to assure you and tell you not to be anxious

U.R. Beautiful
You are stunning
Said goodbye to you out on the stones
I bid you farewell on the rocks
The words I never said just left a hole
The words I never expressed created a void
And I sang 'Yellow' just for you
I sang 'Yellow' specifically for you
I sang it loud, I sang it true
I sang it with passion and verity
Now I hate that song
I now detest that song
Where did we go wrong?
What caused our relationship to go wrong?
And I'll blame it all on me
I will take full responsibility for everything that happened
For your insecurities
For your lack of confidence
And I'm dreaming of a place
I am envisioning a place
Where you could be happy
A place where you can be content
And if I could then I would
If it were possible, I would
Go back to the days you were by my side
Return to the time when you were beside me
Singing you will be alright
Singing that everything would be okay
It doesn't really matter who you are, who you are
It is not significant who you are, who you are
Who you love, where you're from, what you got
Whom you love, your origins, and your possessions do not matter
All you got its enough now
What you currently have is sufficient
U.R. Beautiful
You are stunning
