She works all day Hoping she can pave her way On her dinner plate A lovely array of her favorite failures She's on display But nobody yet knows her name And she refrains From showing her true face 'Cause she's got a beautiful mind And she'll never know She's got a beautiful mind And she lets it show But she feels all alone When she makes a mistake She magnifies the blame and she breaks On a new day She's standing tall and she won't fade 'Cause she's got a beautiful mind And she'll never know She's got a beautiful mind And she lets it show But she feels all alone She's got a beautiful mind And she'll never know She's got a beautiful mind And she lets it show But she feels all alone So if you see her on the street Tell her all that she could be And if you see her in a dream Maybe you'll see she looks a bit like me She's got a beautiful mind and she'll never know She feels all alone
