lyrics

Beauty Mark
© Ian Rushton & Kevin Evans

I’m not gonna make it here
To my many troubles I belong
Under me are many things I can’t repeat
A tongue needs a thought to say what it means

Love is speaking
Remove yourself and let it in
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind

I’m not gonna make it here
It just feels like work
A fog of familiar argument
I’d rather roll in dirt!

Every time I look at you
Someone else someone new
Where’d that beauty mark go to-oo-oo?
Where’d that beauty mark go?

Love is speaking
Remove yourself and let it in
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind

Under-most wonder
Comes to me like no other
Under-most wonder
Comes to me like no other

I’m not gonna make it here
To my many troubles I belong
Decisions in the wind and the rain and cold
You have what you want it’s getting old

Love is speaking
Remove yourself and let it in
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind

Under-most wonder
Comes to me like no other
Under-most wonder
Comes to me like no other
Where’d that beauty mark go to-oo-oo?
Where’d that beauty mark go?
