Lee DeWyze - Beautiful Like You

I don't know how many American Idols are out there but I was watching when last years winner Lee DeWyze performed his new single 'Beautiful Like You'. I totally fell in love with it. (Click on the title if you want to hear it for yourself)

I absolutely believe that this is a prophetic song and when I first heard it, it seemed as if it were God singing to me. That may sounds strange to some of you but... that's how I felt. Now I've listened to it several times and I intentionally listen AS IF God IS singing it to me.

I believe it's something he'd say to me, in my life, right now... maybe it's something he'd say to you as well.
I took a little liberty with the lyrics to help illustrate my point. [ie.] But here they are.
Thought I'd share:

Everybody wants to look into the mirror
and feel a little better now
And everybody wants to know there’s someone out there
Waiting for you to come around

And I wish that you could feel it [my love]
But you don’t choose to believe it
Cause I know that you can’t see it [my] way,
That way

If you could only just stop, stop, stop running
If you could only take a second to breath it [my love] in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you

You know they’re never gonna stop, stop, stop [my] love
Let’s pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see is beautiful
Like you

Everybody wants to, tell someone their secrets
Why don’t you tell me now?
[if you would]
Well, maybe I can fix this
cause I don’t want, you to miss this [life]
and the sun is rainin down, yeah

If you could only just stop, stop, stop running
If you could only take a second to breathe it [my love] in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you

You know they’re never gonna stop, stop, stop [my] love
Let’s pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see is beautiful
Like you

Sometimes it’s hard to be… yourself in this crazy world.
Sometimes it’s hard to breathe… yeah

Everybody wants to know there’s someone out there
Waiting for you to come around

[I am... so] Come around!

If you could only just stop, stop, stop running
If you could only take a second to breathe it [my love] in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you

You know they’re never gonna stop, stop, stop [my] love
Let’s pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see can be beautiful
Like you

Can be beautiful
Like you
Can be beautiful
Like you….
Beautiful!
