“Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl.”

KT Tunstall (1975) Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist

"Suddenly I See".
Eye to the Telescope (2004)
Context: Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl.
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it —
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm.
