She Walked In Beauty

Uh, oh, I didn't mean to wreck your home
We were only drunk and alone
I wanted you to carry on, on

Oh, she walked in beauty
Oh, she hardly knew me
When I left she held her head high
And tried to dry her wet eyes
But oh, she walked in beauty

When I left, I left a suitcase by a door
These are the times, that I'll always adore
And she bent just like an acrobat
Be famous with a face like that
I wish that I could say this time it's me

But uh, oh, I didn't mean to wreck your home
We were only drunk and alone
I wanted you to carry on, on

Oh, she walked in beauty
Oh, she hardly knew me
When I left she held her head high
And tried to dry her wet eyes
But oh, she walked in beauty

When I came back
There was the suitcase I had packed and nothing more
Than dust on the wooden floor and sunshine
Coming through the window blinds
It's often that you cross my mind
I wish that I could do the same for you

But uh, oh, I didn't mean to wreck your home
We were only drunk and alone
I wanted you to carry on, on

Oh, she walked in beauty
Oh, she hardly knew me
When I left she held her head high
And tried to dry her wet eyes
But oh, she walked in beauty
