Tift Merritt - Feeling of Beauty lyrics

Driving without destination Leaving our clothes there on the bank and Swimming in a river with no name The crazy way the motor jangles Talking to somebody ain't got no angles Somebody meeting somebody halfway Every once in awhile, the feeling of beauty Catches my breath, runs right through me If you don't mind, I'll stay on another couple of days Finding out just what you're made of A stretch of green gra** made to make love Racing stripes and hurricanes The few things really worth knowing Like where you think that red bird's going And no illusions on a clear day Every once in awhile, the feeling of beauty Catches my throat, runs right through me If you don't mind, I'll stay on another couple of days Doing right when it's not easy Calling out without thinking Something sweet you just wanted to say I'm alright, thanks for asking Still got a few hopes in my basket Light in the kitchen still on real late I love the way that screen door catches A stranger with a pack of matches And starting out when I don't know the way And every once in a while, the feeling of beauty Catches my heart, runs right through me If you don't mind, I'll stay on another couple of days If it's alright with you, I'll stay on another couple of days
