Lyrics Plastic Beach - Future Islands

Spent a lifetime in the mirror
Always afraid of what someone else would say
I wanted to be strong
So it took some time to tell you
But you knew from the things I'd say
Why do you say that, babe?
You're my beautiful, you're my heart
And you're beautiful just this way

When I took the time to tell you
You took the time to listen to me, too
Now I see, I see today
I see, I see my face

Spent a lifetime in the mirror
Picking apart, what I couldn't change
But I saw my mother, my father, my brother
In my face, in my face

Most the time it was the only thing that kept me going
Other times just a grip of shame
Oh, you came along and showed me who I am
What it means
To be loved
To be one
To be loved
To feel some

Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
And you're my beautiful
And you're beautiful just this way

When I took the time to tell you
You took the time to listen to me, too
Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow

I spent a lifetime in the mirror
Picking apart, what I couldn't change
Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
What you saw today
