She Is

She's told she's beautiful everyday
by a man who loves in her every way.
But she looks in the mirror
and just can't see
the beautiful girl she wanted to be.
But loves lets you see things in a different light.
If she looks into that mirror again
maybe she just might
find that light and finally see
the beautiful girl she wanted to be.
She still can't see her beauty,
but now she knows it's there.
When she looks into that mirror,
she doesn't even care.
Never again will she try to look
because she knows that he
will always see that beautiful girl
she always wanted to be.
