  • Cory's eyes are like a jungle
    He smiles it's like the radio
    He whispers songs into my window
    In words that nobody knows
    There's pretty girls on every corner
    They watch him as he's walking home
    Saying, does he know
    Will you ever know?

    You're beautiful
    Every little piece, love don't you know?
    You're really gonna be someone
    Ask anyone
    And when you find everything you've looked for
    I hope your love leads you back to my door
    Oh, but if it don't, stay beautiful

    Cory finds another way to be
    The highlight of my day
    I'm taking pictures in my mind
    So I can save them for a rainy day
    It's hard to make a conversation
    When he's taking my breath away
    I should say "hey, by the way

    You're beautiful
    Every little piece, love don't you know?
    You're really gonna be someone
    Ask anyone
    And when you find everything you've looked for
    I hope your love leads you back to my door
    Oh, but if it don't, stay beautiful

    If you and I are a story
    That never gets told
    If what you are is a daydream
    I'll never get to hold, at least you'll know

    You're beautiful
    Every little piece, love don't you know?
    You're really gonna be someone
    Ask anyone
    And when you find everything you've looked for
    I hope your love leads you back to my front door
    Oh, but if it don't
    Will you stay beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
    Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful?
    Oh, oh, oh

    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, but if it don't
    Stay beautiful
    Stay beautiful
