Ever tell someone that they're beautiful
I would not complain
Hide in the lights that shine on you
As long as they remain
Out of your mind on an august moon
Howling out your name
Ever tell someone that they're beautiful
When you don't feel the same
It's all been going so wrong till you turn it around
Now you're looking in a window into what you were never about
Now you're alone in the afterglow
And then you seem to materialize
But the weight of the water is why I've been waiting to cry
I would tell summer that she's beautiful
If I didn't know her name
Fall in the nights that fall for you
They never are the same
Out of your mind on an autumn moon
I could not complain
I would tell summer that she's beautiful
But we could use the rain
It's really alright to go wrong till a lover is found
Now you're looking in a window into what she was always about
Now we're alone in the afterglow
And then you seem to materialize
But you're in muddy water too long when the bottle is dry
It's really alright to go wrong till your lover is found
We're growing into California and there's gold all over the ground
Now all I know is the afterglow
But I can tell ya that I'm missing her eyes
But you're in muddy water too long when the bottle's dry
We could use the rain
