This yearning, confessional song from Rufus Wainwright is about moving on from a failed love affair. He doesn't know where he's going, but it's away from this relationship. Wainwright's mother, Kate McGarrigle, considers this her favorite song of his. McGarrigle, who died in 2010 at 63, was very supportive of her son but could be tough on him musically. According to Rufus, he wrote the song "Beauty Mark" in response to her criticism.
