Pretty Things - Rufus Wainwright

Pretty things

So what if I like pretty things

Pretty lies

So what if I like pretty lies

From where you are

To where I am now

I need these pretty things

Around the planets of my face

Everything’s a sign of my astrology

From where you are

To where I am now

Is its own galaxy

Be a star

And fall down somewhere next to me

And make it past your color TV

This time will pass and with it will me

And all these pretty things

Don’t say you don’t notice them
