[Verse 1]
             
Travelling the

            
 world from si

            
de to side
             
From Pocket Mo

            
untain to the 

                  
Apple's eye
             
Like a misanth

            
rope on Hallow

        
een I'm hiding
            
Under a tapest

            
ry of stone hu

             
ng from the sk


y

[Pre-Chorus]
            
But in all the

              
 ocean's blur,

              
 the planes an

  
d taxis
             
And the places

              
 I have been a

        
nd left behind

[Chorus]
             
Nothing's to m

            
e as beautiful

         
 as you
             
And how we'd b

           
e, if I could 

            
say it too
             
Nothing's to m

            
e as beautiful

             
, as beautiful

             
, as beautiful

     
 as you

un came up we
