Celeste Beal: My Love Looks Good On You
Celeste Beal: My Love Looks Good On You
Lyrics:
Verse 1
There’s one truth I learned early as a child,
Bad things and pain only last a little while.
When love is near, it dries all tears away,
I can still hear Mom's voice; and I hear her say:
Chorus
"My love looks good on you,
It was formed in the womb.
It’s in all you do.Just remember that, you know it’s true.
Don’t give in to fear, Mommy’s always here,
Together, we'll paint a brand-new picture
With the colors of love."
Verse 2
I grew a little older, started making friends,
Like sand on the beach, our bonds had no end.
Playing hide and seek, riding our bikes,
Hanging outside until we saw the street lights.
We shared our secrets, and our candy too,
Told each other everything, 'cause that’s what best friends do.
Climbed the tallest trees, thought we could fly,
We were invincible, under the sky.
Chorus
"My love looks good on you,
It was formed in our youth,
When we would laugh until we cried,
It’s what saved us when we almost died.
So whenever you feel you can’t make it through,
Just remember, we already did.
and with love you will again.”
Verse 3
Baby sister, you were my first little girl,
I taught you everything I knew about the world.
I once saved your life, like you saved mine,
We turn a dumpster fire into something fine.
When you hold the matches, I’ll pour the gasoline,
And when the dust settles, our life will be pristine,'Cause...
Chorus
"My love looks good on you,
It’s in all we do.
There’s nothing we can’t handle, just us two.
Love’s in our DNA
So you know we are fit
Both beauty and brains mixed with grit,
Let the haters hate, but they can’t tell us….”

Bridge
To the man of my dreams, you’ve got big shoes to fill,
Let God guide your love If you want to take the wheel
Steer us with love, not with fear or doubt,
Every promise you make, every word out loud.
You want me to trust you, but you’ve got to know,
I’ll trust when I see you catch me if I fall slow.
You need me to love you; I’m already there,
But if you want my heart, you’ve got to show you care.
Chorus
"My love looks good on you,
My heart beats for you
Just like Christ loved the church,
Every drop in my veins would bleed for you.
I will live for you
I will fight for you,
Every time you slip up, I will carry you.
Outro x2
My Love looks good on you
It’s unconditional, oh so powerful,
Our endless passion
Satisfaction
My love feels good on you,
electricity flows between us two
I will live for you,
I will protect you,
I... Love... You...
And my love looks good... on... you...
