Lyrics Old 97’s – This Beautiful Thing

Remember the year, look at us then
A day in the life of me and my friend
Nights would come and go on their way
I would stay for another day

Many a sun has risen since then
That many days I’ve seen her again
She was a whole other star in space
I would stay for all of my days

Oh my soul you’re bouncing about
The cold I know is warming
You will help me figure out this beautiful thing we’re forming
You will help me figure out this beautiful thing we’re forming

Help me, help me when I’m in doubt
Help me find my eyes again
‘Cause I’m a loser crying out
If I was just a friend, if I was just a friend

Help me, help me when I’m in doubt
Help me find my eyes again
‘Cause I’m a loser crying out
If I was just a friend, if I was just a friend

Some old year we will renew
The love we had here when we were just two
Then that moment I’ll say to my friend
Wouldn’t you do it all over again

Oh, my soul you’re bouncing about, the cold I know is warming
You will help me figure out this beautiful thing we’re forming
You will help me figure out this beautiful thing we’re forming
Help me, help me figure out this beautiful thing we’re forming
