I see you're beautiful, oh beautiful
On Monday afternoons
You drown inside the pool
Of abandoned sorrow
On Monday afternoons
Oh you say breathe slowly, calm down
This boat is coming to a halt now
Lift your head up, leave me behind
My pain is not your fault
So let go of me
And you'll be free
Oh I am only beautiful
On Monday afternoons
And I say you don't see
This is vanity
Oh you are always beautiful
A flower in bloom
I will not leave you here, oh beautiful
For you will surely die
And if I leave you here, alone and cold
I'll miss you, I will die
Oh you say breathe slowly, calm down
This boat is coming to a halt now
Lift your head up, leave me behind
My pain is not your fault
So let go of me
And you'll be free
Oh I am only beautiful
On Monday afternoons
And I say you don't see
This is vanity
You are always beautiful
A flower in bloom
Within me, without me
All good things must last
Hold my hand through the darkness
And together we can last
So let go of me
And you'll be free
I am only beautiful
On Monday afternoons
And I say you don't see
This is vanity
Oh you are always beautiful
A flower in bloom
No, I am only beautiful
On Monday afternoons
