Pretty Women

Pretty women Pretty women wonder where my confidences lay Am not radiant to fit a perfect model For all I have is a shabby bum And caves that hold my slightly long bones side by side Pretty women wonder where my secrets lay Am not so famous to be a first lady For all I ever knew were books and a few friends Pretty women wonder and wonder looking for answers For all they know is the smile I always keep on my face The mouth I shut when they fill the ballrooms The who I am that wasn’t supposed to be with him But as they wonder around The pride I have held is eyes The confidence in him kept him moving The trust I showed him kept him close For it’s the faith that love never lies The makes we keep the secrets with in For we only met destiny For its not the way I walk Dress or my looks The fame or my substances That leaves his eyes closed to the rest But the beauty within
