I can barely sleep, there's something on my mind
I'm lying in the dark, searching hard to find
For the love that we shared, and the life we left behind
There's only beautiful excuses in my eyes, yeah
I could scream and shout, but what's the point, it's done
Don't try before you learn, fly too close to the sun
You're starting to lose faith, so hold on to your pride
There's only beautiful excuses in my eyes, yeah
There's only beautiful excuses in my eyes, oh
What makes an angel fall in love?
What makes a good man turn around?
And how do you know if she's the one, yeah
I've made all the perfect alibis
And I should have called it my destiny
But I can't cover this up with sweet goodbyes
No, there's only beautiful excuses in my eyes
Locked up in her thoughts, we haven't spoken days
She's saying that I've changed, still stuck in her ways
I won't pick up the phone, I've said all there is to say
Gotta be strong because it's wrong for me to stay
Oh, I've said all there is to say
No, there's only beautiful excuses in my eyes, oh
What makes an angel fall in love?
What makes a good man turn around?
And how do you know if she's the one, yeah
I've made all the perfect alibis
And I should have called it my disguise
But I can't cover this up with sweet goodbyes



But I can't cover this up with sweet goodbyes
The sweet goodbyes, no
There's only beautiful excuses in my eyes
Too many beautiful excuses
Tell me what the use is
Try to find a way to come back home
How can we correct this
If we're disconnected
I don't know
I don't know
What makes an angel fall in love
What makes a good man turn and run
How do you know if she's the one
I made all the perfect alibis
And I should have caught it in my disguise
But I can't control it
How can I clear this up
With sweet goodbyes, no
There's only beautiful excuses in my eyes
Too many beautiful excuses in my eyes
