Beauty Is Only Soul Deep

It doesn't take long,
to admire a sweet thing,
You don't need no glasses,
It's an intuitive thing,
You can be marred
all about your face with scars
Have three eyes and no teeth,
If what's  inside is good,
You'll need no relief...

Some of us,
We see deeper than skin,
We focus our attention,
On what's beautiful within...

Sure it don't hurt if you got both,
But that seems mighty rare,
In any event,
I at least do not care

Loveliness starts from
the inside,
No reason to doubt,
A beautiful soul...
Need never to pout,

So hold your head up,
If your essence does so rate,
With eventual happiness,
You won't long have to wait.
