Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sun Wonderful, you're wonderful, as wonderful as they come And I can't help but feel attached To the feelings I can't even match With my face pressed up to the glass, wanting you Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky Wonderful, it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm you don't But you just can't tell Who'll you love and who you don't And I love you, as you love me So let the clouds roll by your face We'll let the world spin on to another place We'll climb the tallest tree above it all To look down on you and me and them And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm you don't But you just can't tell,who'll you love and who you don't Don't let your life wrap around you Don't forget to call, whenever I'll be here just waiting for you I'll be under your stars forever Neither here nor there just right beside you I'll be under the stairs forever Neither here nor there just right beside you |

Song Secrets: Not really a secret sound, but if you listen carefully you'll notice that in the second verse, "wonderful, it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I", at the "just like I" on 'like' it goes too low for Billy, and he just speaks the word. However, D'arcy (who sings backup) is singing higher, and has no problem with the note. -Nellie Rash.
-You hear this best with headphones, but through out the entire song, theres a 'beatbox' that goes along with the drum beat, you know a 'beatbox' is when rappers make drum sounds with their mouths, like The Fat Boys did. So ya, i would guess Billy sampled some guy doing a 'beatbox' to the drum beat and and looped it for the entire song. It's there, when you hear it once, every time you hear the song after that, your ears will automatically focus on that sound. -Edwin Maldonado.
-sounds like d'arcy singing an extended "aahhh..." from 0:07-0:11 -Sunshiny27@aol.com
