Jordan Smith's 'Beautiful Things' is an uplifting pop ballad that encourages listeners to embrace their true selves and recognize the beauty within themselves and the world. The song addresses feelings of inadequacy and hopelessness, urging honesty and self-acceptance as paths to victory. It celebrates love, creativity, and the divine presence in everyday life, with a refrain that affirms our inherent worth. While it touches on spiritual themes, its message is more broadly humanistic, focusing on personal authenticity and the goodness of creation rather than explicit Christian doctrine.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
If once in your life, you wished you were someone else
If once in your life, you thought there was no way out
If once in your life, you lied to save yourself
Realize somehow there are beautiful things
We lie to ourselves and hope it will come undone
We bleed just the same and think we're the only ones
So find, with the truth, you'll win
Just be yourself, just be yourself
Somehow we are beautiful things
Somehow we are beautiful things
Is a man allowed to feel this happy
In a world that seems so sad?
Lend me your violins and sing me your love song
There's no fear in true love, there's no fear anymore
No more, no more, no more, no more
Just love
Somehow we are beautiful things
Dance with me and sing with me
To the sounds when we make love
Somehow those are beautiful things
Fantasies and reveries are in a way Picasso paintings
Somehow those are beautiful things
Your God is a beautiful thing
Our world is a beautiful thing
Our mind is a beautiful thing
Our bodies are beautiful things
And colors and wonders are beautiful things
Our voices are, your voices are
Our voices, our voices
Just sing, just sing
Just sing your song
If once in your life, you wished you were someone else
If once in your life, you thought there was no way out
Just find, with the truth, you'll win
Just be yourself, just be yourself
Somehow we are beautiful things
Somehow we are beautiful things
Somehow we are beautiful things
Somehow we are beautiful things
