So Lost In Your Beauty

Instrumental Intro

(lute strumming and a talkbox wah)

Verse 1

Well I woke up this morning and I couldn't find my phone

I walked around the kitchen then I tripped on my own bone

I looked out the window and the ocean stretched for miles

And I knew right then I'd lost myself somewhere between your smiles

I checked beneath the sofa and I searched beneath the bed

I even asked the goldfish but he shook his little head

Then I realized the truth as the sunlight hit your face

I wasn't lost in places I was lost in your embrace

Pre-Chorus

Oh I'm driftin' and I'm driftin'

On a tide I can't control

No compass and no captain

Just the beating of my soul

Chorus

'Cause I'm lost oh so lost so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost

Just off the coast of whatever you are

So lost with you that's the furthest I've gone

Lost lost lost in your beauty

Lost lost lost in your glow

Take me to that island of lost

Where only you and I both go

Verse 2

Well I used to read the maps I used to know the stars

Now I'm counting freckles on your shoulders in the dark

I used to have direction I used to have a plan

Now I'm just a sailor with no rudder in my hands

I tried to build a signal fire but it just burned like me

I tried to write a postcard but your name was all I'd see

The coconuts are plenty and the palm trees bend and sway

But I don't need a rescue if I'm stranded here all day

Pre-Chorus

Oh I'm bluer than the water

And I'm warmer than the sand

I don't want them finding me

'Cause I like where I stand

Chorus

'Cause I'm lost oh so lost so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost

Just off the coast of whatever you are

So lost with you that's the furthest I've gone

Lost lost lost in your beauty

Lost lost lost in your glow

Take me to that island of lost

Where only you and I both go

Talkbox Bridge

(Wah-wah-wah I'm so lost)

(Wah-wah-wah in your glow)

(Wah-wah-wah take me over)

(Wah-wah-wah let me go)

Verse 3

Now I sit upon this shoreline with a seashell to my ear

And all I hear is that sweet sound of you so crystal clear

Some folks say I'm crazy some folks say I've gone off track

But I found myself the moment that I never looked back

The tide comes in the tide goes out and still I stay right here

Your beauty is the island and I'm happy to adhere

So if you see me wandering with a far-off kinda gaze

Just know I'm lost on purpose in the prettiest of haze

Pre-Chorus

No I'm not searching for a way out

No I'm not calling for a boat

I found my destination

In the way you turn and float

Chorus

'Cause I'm lost oh so lost so lost in your beauty

Wish I was lost on an island of lost

Just off the coast of whatever you are

So lost with you that's the furthest I've gone

Lost lost lost in your beauty

Lost lost lost in your glow

Take me to that island of lost

Where only you and I both go

Outro - Spoken

You know folks, I've been on many journeys in my time

I've been to Memphis and Peru and all up and down the line

But I'll tell you something true before this song is through

The only lost I wanna be is lost inside

of you

(Vocoder fade)

So lost oh so lost

So lost oh so lost

With you with you with you
