More Than Beautiful

by Danilo Stern-Sapad

A song celebrating inner beauty and true character beyond appearances.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I woke up in a room that knew your name Sunlight hit the frame where your picture used to hang The silence wasn’t quiet, it was howling through the walls And I swear I saw your shadow in the hall

[Pre-Chorus] You left like rain leaves roses, quiet, but it stains And I’ve been tracing every whisper back to you again

[Chorus] How could I have ever thought You were anything but whole You held the weight of heaven In a body they called “cold” Your love was not a weakness It was symphony and flame And I would give my last breath Just to hear you say my name

[Verse 2] I found your note beneath the kitchen light Words you never said out loud, but tried to write It said, “Don’t forget the way you saw me when I broke.” But darling, every crack in you was gold

[Pre-Chorus] There’s a silence here where you used to live And the mirror shows a face that I can’t forgive

[Chorus] How could I have ever thought You were anything but light You fought your wars in silence And still held me in the night Your heart was made of thunder But you spoke like morning rain And I would tear the sky in two Just to hold you once again

[Bridge] You were never less than beautiful You were never just the pain You were fire on a sinking ship And I loved you through the flames

[Final Chorus] How could I have ever thought You were anything but more Than every song I’ll ever write And every heart I’ve ever known You were not a fleeting moment You were the healer of my pain And I would live a thousand lives Just to hold you once again

[Outro] You were more than beautiful… You were everything.
