THE STORY:
I was attending a fashion show and I saw the most gorgeous creature across the runway.
INFLUENCES:
One day I was on my way to jogging and I had Madonna's "Who's That Girl" soundtrack in my car. It struck me how brilliant the bridges were in Madonna's 80s songs. I set out to write a song with a very 80s Madonna bridge. The "so much in love" passage is a tribute to my favorite 80s cult celeb Jill Jones. And of course, the drum track at the beginning incorporates a little Whitney "I Wanna Dance With Somebody".
THE LYRICS:
Beautiful
boy you’ve got great style
Beautiful boy you’ve got great lips
Come sit next to me for awhile
Let’s be glamorous and eclipse everyone in this room
I’m feeling needy and intense
You’re the first boy who makes sense
Let’s own this town tonight
Chorus:
Beautiful boy I’m so in love with you
Beautiful boy make my dreams come true
Beautiful boy you’re new to town
Beautiful boy I’ve been around
Do you go home with boys like me?
Do you go home with boys who throw things up their nose?
We can do Paris can do Rome
We can make love we can make home
Let’s own this room tonight
Repeat Chorus
I wanna kiss you get chills when I see you
Tonight’s that special night
I’m gonna steal it
It’s my deck gonna deal it
A force of nature baby
You look like a million dollars and then some
If you slip through my hands
I’ll locomotive back to you
There’s so many people in the world tonight
Who are gonna sleep alone
And there’s me...and there’s you
And there’s me and there’s you
So much in love
So much in love
Go home with me tonight
