Inside

It doesn’t matter
If your hair goes grey
Your face is lined
Your memory fades
You’ll always have
That starlight in your eyes
That time can’t hide
You’ll still be
Beautiful inside
You’re so beautiful inside

Playground bullies
Taunt and cheat
Someone’s cruelly
Indiscreet
In the face of ugly rumours
Don’t deny what’s implied
You’re too beautiful to hide
You’re so beautiful inside

Cold and lonely
Poor and only
Keeping it together
Now or never
Fallen angels
All of us
Still fly
From hello to goodbye

And if our efforts
Seem to fail
And all at once
We’re up for sale
We’ll still be angels
Learning
When and where
And how to fly
And then how high
We coincide
Old and young
When tears have dried
You’re too beautiful to hide
You’re so beautiful inside
