Gorgeous
X-Ambassadors Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I might be better off without you
There's too many people all around you
All these vultures that surround you
They don't know a thing about you

You're so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous

Nobody understands you
You ain't nothing they can handle
Every man you put your hands on
You make him so god damn handsome

Feel, ooh, so pretty whenever you're around
Ooh, so pretty
Feel ten feet off the ground

You're so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous

We are young, we are free
Like renegades, like James Dean
Beat the drum, sing off-key
You set me free, you set me free

'Cause you're so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
You're so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
So gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous
You're so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous




Oh, so gorgeous
'Cause you make me feel gorgeous

The song may have inspired it..

But YOU saved yourself.
Give yourself more credit.
You deserve to be happy.

Hard times are inevitable. The trick is to not let them change who you are and the good inside.

Good luck to you

You can always tell when a true artist feels the music , the words, the soul in every word because you feel it right along with them. There's a difference between feeling a song and just knowing a song. Beautifully done..
