Yeah, she is beautiful but she don’t mean a thing to me

Couple years old track, but good tracks never get out of taste. That’s the beauty of music, they have no expiring date.

Tiny Vessels
by Death Cab for Cutie
from Transatlanticism (2003)

This is the moment that you know
That you told her that you loved her but you don’t
You touch her skin and then you think
That she is beautiful but she don’t mean a thing to me

Yeah, she is beautiful but she don’t mean a thing to me

I spent two weeks in Silverlake
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks
And she was beautiful but she didn’t mean a thing to me

Yeah, she was beautiful but she didn’t mean a thing to me

Wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that I was telling
And all the playful misspellings
And every bite I gave you left a mark

Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn’t want to fade
But they did and so did I that day

All I see are dark grey clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you ask was something wrong?
That I think you’re damn right there is but we can’t talk about it now

No, we can’t talk about it now

So one last touch and then you’ll go
And we’ll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me

Yeah, you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me
Yeah, you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me
