Beth Hart Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She burns among the clouds
She never stops believing
She only dreams out loud
There's a jackpot in the dresser
She's fallen in the bath
And if you need to kiss her
'Cause she gives it away
And you're fascinated by her
And she does it again with simple & brilliant desire
And she gives it away
And you're fascinated by..by her
She wears a million colors
There's rainbows on her soles
She got a sign above her
That says "I'm never growin' old"
You're askin' her to dance
Now she spins a solid, white light
She gonna' make love to you today
Today & every night
And she gives it away
And you're fascinated by her
Then she does it again
With simple & brilliant desire
And she gives it away
And you're fascinated by by her, by her
She may be waiting 'round the corner of your mind
But still you know she's there
You can feel her inside
So don't forget about the reasons that brought you her
'Cause she's a miracle...
