The Beautiful Unknown

I’ve been walkin’ down Broadway thinking about making new memories
And everything in me is falling into pavement cracks

This stranger’s hand that I’m holding I can’t explain the connection

All I know all I know it feels like home

I can carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
But my heart has no protection no

The silence that we’re sharing feels like perfection
So if you can listen you can feel it feel it

Feel my heartbeat in your hand

But this joy feels good in such a cynical man


So raise a glass to the beautiful unknown
Be prepared to undress your soul

We just met
But we’re old friends

That’s how life is

And how it should end

I don’t mean no disrespect but I did not hear one word you said
I’m sitting at the bar looking in your eyes

Your heart is in my head

If only if only you knew all the plans I’ve been makin’

I don’t think you’d call me crazy I’d kiss you right where you stand
The lights go on it’s not polite

Outside this bar it’s getting bright


I’m going to walk you home but I don’t want to let you go
Courage from the Dutch but not too much
Yeah we shared some stories

I’m letting go of everything that hurt me before

When something grows I’m out of my mind It flows

That’s how life is
And how it should end

Because we just met but we’re old friends
