Beauty She'Ll Never Know

She walks through the lonely streets Waiting for her love to meet She sits outside in the pouring rain And cries to get rid of the pain She quiets down in the crowd Being misread, seeming proud And in her sweet shy smile you'll see A girl lacking confidence is she With her friends, she fakes so well She's too afraid to break out of her shell Too afraid to see her beauty, her worth How precious she's been since the time of her birth All too often, she's been put down Her self-esteem and joy were left to drown She's the type of girl whose beauty stays Morning and night, all throughout the day But she doesn't know it, she never will Her empty feeling, she'll never fill And even when she fills up with tears From all the hurt built up through the years Stunning and radiant, her eyes will glow But still, her beauty, she'll never know You can tell her, but she'll just wonder why, or how you can possibly tell her this awful lie She's set herself up for failure and pain, All efforts toward happiness will just be in vain She's the sweet and funny girl, who's smart The beautiful girl, with her beautiful heart But she'll never know it, she wont accept; Only the years of hurtful words she's kept It's sad to see her scarred from her life of woe And how she has this beauty that she'll never know
