Future Islands - Plastic Beach Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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"

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
You came along and showed me who I am
What it means

[Bridge]
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."

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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
I see, I see tomorrow
What you saw today
