Beautiful to Me
Little Birdy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't leave my open arms all warm
And go see I don't know if your here for me
Well look the afternoon is the only place where you and I belong
Your mine forever and a day
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Definitely this cannot be all that you
Have to offer love
When your on your own
Well look I fell in love
'Cause this world is way to big now
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
And its a love love love that is here with me
Well look the afternoon is the only place where you and I belong
Your mine forever and a day
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
The lyrics of Little Birdy's song "Beautiful to Me" express a deep love and admiration for someone. In the beginning, the singer pleads with the listener not to leave her open arms all warm. The uncertainty of the listener's presence in her life is evident and the singer doesn't know if they're here for her. She then goes on to say that the afternoon is the only place where the two belong, hinting at perhaps a secret romance. The singer then declares that the listener is hers forever and a day.
The chorus of the song is a declaration of love and admiration. The singer is telling the listener that they're beautiful to her, repeatedly. She then acknowledges that the listener must have more to offer but insists that their presence is enough for her.
The song doesn't have a clear chorus, which makes it more unique in its delivery. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but the overall feel of the song is one of devotion and admiration. The lead singer of Little Birdy, Katy Steele, explained the inspiration for the song was the movie "Harold and Maude" and its message of beauty being in the eye of the beholder.

Go ahead don't go
Stay here with me, don't leave just yet
Don't leave my open arms all warm
My arms are open and ready to embrace you, please stay
And go see I don't know if your here for me
I'm unsure if you're truly here for me or not
Well look the afternoon is the only place where you and I belong
This moment in the afternoon is the only time and place that feels right for us
Your mine forever and a day
You belong to me now and always
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
You are stunningly gorgeous in my eyes and heart
Definitely this cannot be all that you have to offer love
Surely you have more to offer than just what I see on the surface
When your on your own
When you're by yourself and I'm not around
Well look I fell in love
I realized that I have fallen in love with you
'Cause this world is way too big now
The world feels too big and lonely without you
And its a love love love that is here with me
The love I feel for you is strong and present within me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
You are endlessly beautiful to me, beyond just your physical appearance
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
You are breathtaking and captivating to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
Your beauty is indescribable and eternally fascinating to me
Your beautiful your beautiful to me
You are simply the most beautiful person I have ever seen or known
