Love of Beauty - MCB

(ooh) You were the light on a hard gray day I held your

name like a match in rain

Trying to keep one warm thing alive

Every room felt

colder after you

But your trace stayed bright inside my mind

I found a little grace in the wreckage A quiet gold I

could not deny

If I break, let it open

If I fall, let me see

How the hurt turns slowly To a thing of beauty

You are a thing of beauty

Even in the bruise and blue

A fire in the fractured pieces Pulling me back through

You are a thing of beauty

More than I was strong enough to prove

I carry your color through the night

And it carries me to

you

I wore my sorrow like a borrowed coat

Till the seams gave way and let me breathe Now the mirror

shows a steadier face

Not untouched, just learning what to keep

Your memory moves under the surface Like a current turning doubt to

peace

Stay in the spark Stay

in the scar

Love does not leave when it changes shape I know who we

are

You are a thing of beauty

Even in the bruise and blue

A fire in the fractured pieces

Pulling me back through

You are a thing of beauty

More than I was strong enough to prove

I carry your

color through the night

And it carries me to you

Thing of beauty

Stay with me (ooh)
