Before I met you I was blind
Pills and liquid filled my mind
Beneath your outline I was new
Overflowing with your tune
And don't you know you're beautiful
Next month I missed you like a child
Couldn't see past you though I tried
And don't you know you're beautiful
And don't you know you're beautiful
Now I think of every hour
When you still retained your power
And the precious nights we'd share
When we'd breathe in common air
The feeling now you've gone
This wretched life goes on
The knife inside of me
It turns just like a key
The sunlight always comes too soon
My body asks me what to do
I was so small and vulnerable
And you were only beautiful
The seasons shining in your hair
And it was more than I could bare
But I can see you in my smile
And you are only beautiful
Pills and liquid filled my mind
Beneath your outline I was new
Overflowing with your tune
And don't you know you're beautiful
Next month I missed you like a child
Couldn't see past you though I tried
And don't you know you're beautiful
And don't you know you're beautiful
Now I think of every hour
When you still retained your power
And the precious nights we'd share
When we'd breathe in common air
The feeling now you've gone
This wretched life goes on
The knife inside of me
It turns just like a key
The sunlight always comes too soon
My body asks me what to do
I was so small and vulnerable
And you were only beautiful
The seasons shining in your hair
And it was more than I could bare
But I can see you in my smile
And you are only beautiful
Lush

Lush were an English rock band formed in London in 1987. The original line-up consisted of Miki Berenyi (vocals, guitar), Emma Anderson (vocals, guitar), Steve Rippon (bass guitar) and Chris Acland (drums). Phil King replaced Rippon in 1991. They were one of the first bands to have been described with the "shoegazing" label. Following the death of Acland, the group disbanded in 1996.
The group reunited for a short time between 2015 and 2016 with Berenyi, Anderson, King and Justin Welch. They toured and recorded an EP of new material.
This song is on the album 'Spooky' which came out in 1992. Helped me through my turbulent adolescence!!
love it...
Well, of course, your vote doesn't really count, Stingray, since everyone knows you're a troll. I whole-heartedly wish you'd leave this place. You're the fungus on an otherwise healthy and happy plant.
Oh! Don't encourage the trolls!
The first time I heard that on the radio (and the last), my wife and I were driving back from a wedding in Colorado in July of 2000.
I was scanning the FM dial, driving back in the very northern part of Newer Mexico, and that song faded in from some independent station from who knows where.
I was struggling to hear the end of it so I could get the name of it.
I lucked out when the DJ said it on the higher end of the fade.
When I got home, I went to the local record store and ordered it.
Then uploaded it to R. Paradise...where it got the boot.
Wow... this song is cool...
Concurrence!
(Heck, why not shove all inputs through a Leslie cabinet, or the digital equivalent?)
Add the Heart Throbs to that list...

Everybody in my hotel room enjoys this song...
This song is good for the ears...
