Beautiful I Was
I was beautiful child
Beautiful and so kind
When all I had was just mine
When I had a clearer mind
When no-one could fake a smile
When war was still very far
When I had non of these scars
I was beautiful child
Beautiful and so kind
When I had nothing to fear
When my conscience was still clear
When I had no pain to bare
When all those I loved were near
And only positive things I could hear
I was beautiful child
Beautiful and so kind
You could see innocence in my face
I knew when love was just fake
When life was never compromised
Was never at stake
When my heart was a specal, warm
place
I was beautiful child
Beautiful and so kind
I was beautiful child
Beautiful inside out!
