Magnificent (She Says)

This is where

This is where the bottle lands

Where all the biggest questions meet

With little feet stood in the sand

And this is where

The echoes swell to nothing on the tide

And where a tiny pair of hands

Finds a sea-worn piece of glass

And sets it as a sapphire in her mind

And there she stands

Throwing both her arms around the world

The world that doesn't even know

How much it needs this little girl

It's all gonna be magnificent, she says

It's all gonna be magnificent

This is where it all began

To light your mother's cigarette

And to go to touch her hand

And my heart

There defrosting in a gaze

Wasn't built to be that way

Suddenly I understand

There on the sand

Throwing both her arms around the world

The world that doesn't even know

How much it needs this little girl

It's all gonna be magnificent, she says

It's all gonna be magnificent

She says

It's all gonna be magnificent

She says, it's all gonna be magnificent

The echoes slow

The bottle lands

The echoes slow

And there she stands
