R.E.M.: "At My Most Beautiful" Lyrics

(Buck/Mills/Stipe)

(chorus)

I've found a way to make you

I've found a way

A way to make you smile

I read bad poetry

Into your machine

I save your messages

Just to hear your voice

You always listen carefully

To awkward rhymes

You always say your name,

Like I wouldn't know it's you,

At your most beautiful

(repeat chorus)

At my most beautiful

I count your eyelashes, secretly

With every one, whisper I love you

I let you sleep

I know you're closed eye watching me,

Listening

I thought I saw a smile

(repeat chorus)
