lyrics

You’re Prettier
(Lyrics by Porter C. 2013)

I went out walking
The sky was up, the stars were out, the moon was blue
Behind the clouds, above the towers, a big to-do
But I’d rather look at you because
You’re prettier
You’re prettier

The leaves were easing
From the trees and in the breeze
And all that fall
The candles in the windows and the brick-bright wall
But I didn’t care at all because
You’re prettier
You’re prettier

Soap my stone (baby owl)
You’re my soul (baby owl)
Baby owl, baby owl, baby owl, baby owl!

I saw all the girls walking through the city
Looking old and new
Looking kind of pretty like the girls can do
But I’d rather look at you because
You’re prettier
You’re prettier

I walked back home
The sun was up, the stars were out, the moon was full
Behind the clouds, above the towers, it all was dull
I’d rather look at you because
You’re prettier
You’re prettier

Soap my stone (baby owl)
You’re my soul (baby owl)
Baby owl, baby owl, baby owl, baby owl!

You’re prettier
You’re prettier
