So Beautiful
Savage Garden(野人花园) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no phrase that hits
Like an ocean needs the sand
Or a dirty old shoe that fits
And if all the world was perfect
I would only ever want to see your scars
You know they can have their universe
We'll be in the dirt designing stars
And darlin' you know
You make me feel so beautiful
Nowhere else in the world I wanna be
You make me feel so beautiful
Whether I'm up or down
There's no crowd to please
I'm like a faith without a clause to believe in it
And if all the world was smiling
I would only ever want to see your frown
You know they can sail away in sunsets
We'll be right here stranded on the ground
Just happy to be found
You make me feel so beautiful
Nowhere else in the world I wanna be
You make me feel so beautiful
I have lost my illusions
I have drowned in your words
I have left my confusion to a cynical world
I am throwing myself at things I don't understand
Discover enlightenment holding your hand
You are
So beautiful
Yeah darlin' you know!
That you make me feel so beautiful
The lyrics of Savage Garden's song "So Beautiful" express a deep love and appreciation for a person's imperfections, transforming them into something beautiful. The lyrics draw a comparison between the connection between two people to the natural harmony found in the ocean and sand or a dirty old shoe that fits perfectly. In a world where perfection is sought after, the singer chooses to value the flaws and scars of the person they love. The lyrics also suggest a level of contentment with being together, even if they are stranded on the ground while others sail away.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the impact of the person the singer is addressing has had on them, making them feel beautiful and complete regardless of where they are in life. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and surrender to this person, suggesting that they have found enlightenment or a deeper understanding of themselves through their love. The song ends with a repetition of the sentiment expressed in the chorus, reinforcing the idea that this person makes the singer feel beautiful, and there is nowhere else they would rather be.

Like an ocean needs the sand
I feel incomplete without you by my side

We may not be perfect, but we fit together just right
And if all the world was perfect
Even in a perfect world, I would still choose you
I would only ever want to see your scars
Your flaws and struggles are what make you who you are, and I accept and cherish them
You know they can have their universe
Others may have their own priorities, but you are all that matters to me

You know they can sail away in sunsets
I don't care about the superficial success of others--something better has already come my way
We'll be right here stranded on the ground
We don't need the glamour and fame, just each other
Just happy to be found
Finding each other has been a blessing
I have lost my illusions
You have shown me what truly matters
I have drowned in your words
Your words bring me so much happiness and fulfillment
I have left my confusion to a cynical world
The world may be negative, but my love for you remains steadfast
I am throwing myself at things I don't understand
I am willing to take risks and jump into the unknown as long as I have you by my side
Discover enlightenment holding your hand
Together, we can discover and achieve true happiness and fulfillment
You are So beautiful
You are everything I have ever wanted and more
Yeah darlin' you know!
I want you to know how deeply I love and cherish you

Likewise, he's not bad looking either. I was so shocked when he "came out of the closet!"
