I Was Beautiful
Strange
That my being who I am
I should ever feel pretty,
But with you,
I felt beautiful,
Top-of-the-world beautiful.
Strange
That I changed
And began to believe
While with you,
I was beautiful,
Drop-dead, knock-out beautiful.
But now,
It’s just plain ol’ me again.
The clock struck midnight.
But it’s alright
Because for a short while
I was in the spotlight;
I was Cinderella.
Sad
That you’re leaving so soon
And taking my heart with you.
But that’s alright
Because for a while
I was beautiful.
