Tami Neilson - Beautiful lyrics
[Tami Neilson - Beautiful lyrics]
She puts on lipstick like she
Has each morning before
Smooths down her cotton skirt
As she opens her door
On the bus she's riding
No eyes recognise her or care
She checks reflections in windows to
Make sure she's still there
Can't anybody see the girl she used to be?
When he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, "Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey beautiful
At the end of the day as she washes her face
With a critical eye and a finger
She'll trace
Each line that appeared overnight
Like an unwelcome guest no mask-up makeup
But this is how he liked her best
She doesn't realise each laugh-line
Is a prize
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, "Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey beautiful"
She looks at hands that have given such love
Reaches for skin-firming cream
She looks at hips that have given such life
Starts at the gym the next week
He'd say, "You're so precious to me, yeah
Wish you could see what I see
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
When he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey, beautiful
Hey, beautiful
Has each morning before
Smooths down her cotton skirt
As she opens her door
On the bus she's riding
No eyes recognise her or care
She checks reflections in windows to
Make sure she's still there
Can't anybody see the girl she used to be?
When he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, "Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey beautiful
At the end of the day as she washes her face
With a critical eye and a finger
She'll trace
Each line that appeared overnight
Like an unwelcome guest no mask-up makeup
But this is how he liked her best
She doesn't realise each laugh-line
Is a prize
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, "Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey beautiful"
She looks at hands that have given such love
Reaches for skin-firming cream
She looks at hips that have given such life
Starts at the gym the next week
He'd say, "You're so precious to me, yeah
Wish you could see what I see
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
When he'd say, Hey, beautiful
I know just how to make you smile
And he'd say, Hey, beautiful
Won't you lend me your heart a little while?
I'll love it back to life hey, beautiful
Hey, beautiful
