He drowns in his dreams,
An exquisite extreme I know
He’s as damned as he seems
And more Heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain’t right,
It just ain’t right

Oh, and I don’t know,
I don’t know what he’s after
But he’s so beautiful,
he’s such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Lord, would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?

He’s magic and myth,
As strong as what I believe
And a tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
And do I try to change him?
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight,
Hold on tight

Oh, 'cause I don’t know,
I don’t know what he’s after
But he’s so beautiful,
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?

I’m longing for love and the logical
But he’s only happy hysterical
I’m waiting for some kind of miracle,
Waited so long.
So long.
He’s soft to the touch
But frayed at the ends he breaks
He’s never enough
And still he’s more than I can take

Oh, 'cause I don’t know,
I don’t know what he’s after
But he’s so beautiful,
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster?

He’s beautiful,
Such a beautiful disaster
Beautiful
Beautiful disaster
