V1
Pretty green eyes, be still and know.
Caress my being
Listen to me with your ears closed.
The buzz of our times in your bones.
Pre Chorus
But tell me
Do wings have to spread to fly?
Do i need permission to be?
Does my name need to be made of letters?
Leaving all things forgotten.
Chorus
I am a gift wrapped up in you,
I am nothing and everything.
I am, all that you love and all that you hate.
Still I am all wrapped up, in you.
V2
Staring at me, can you see you
Hungry for knowing.
I still find myself wandering and lost. So lost.
Pre Chorus
But tell me
Do you feel like your life is coming?
Or have you got it all right now?
Can you read my mind with your soul?
Is your cup empty to receive ?
Chorus x1
Bridge
You heard me whisper your name,
within the cry of my emptiness.
It’s time to give in to your love.
Chorus out
You are a gift wrapped up in me.
You are, nothing and everything.
You are, all that I love and all that I hate
Still I am all wrapped up,
Still you are all wrapped up,
Still I am all wrapped up, in you.

Beautiful Story
Written By Pauline Drossart
ASCAP/Purjus Publishing
Verse 1
it's not so complicated to see
past the tears on your face and believe,
The storm is leaving.
Worn out tapestries
That once defined you, can no longer be.
stained glass window soul etched in gold.
you can't hide a dream with an open heart.
Can you love?
Chorus
So begin it now, right now.
kiss my face,
feel every feeling you always escaped.
our beautiful story could end tomorrow
So begin it now, right now.g
Let me taste (it all)
Draw yourself into this empty space,
our beautiful story could end tomorrow.
Verse 2
Soft and pure inward sun comes to shine.
That boyish smile, carved in my heart.
pieces of moments collide,
and spin into shooting stars,
in my empty skies.
I feel your tide rising up on me.
Your silent lips tell me love stories.
in color without an end
Chorus
Instrumental
