Beauty Fades Lyrics - Singles - Terra Naomi

she carries herself like a pretty woman 

maybe she was one once 

do i see my future in her presence 

i can't stop staring 

a shopping cart is all she has now 

and a bleeding heart never paid the bills and 

beauty fades 

down on sunset boulevard 

no one stops to look at her 

no one notices her figure 

men once fought to get her name 

her hair was long and colored blonde 

her lashes curled up to the sun 

with black mascara 

ooh, keep your feet focussed forward on the sidewalk 

on the stars 

on another day 

cause beauty fades 

like the sun in march like the rain in may 

beauty fades 

like the secret truth of a summer day 

beauty fades 

i like to drive into the hills of laurel canyon 

i like the houses and the trees 

i like the money in my bank account 

and it's running out 

but i'll worry about that another day 

as beauty fades 

ooh, people they don't want you when you're ugly 

after they've taken everything you had to offer 

away away away 

ya beauty fades 

like the sun in march like the rain in may 

beauty fades 

like the secret truth of a summer day 

beauty fades 

summertime i watch the girls go by 

dressed in their summer clothes 

maybe there's another truth awaiting them 

i will never know 

they wait they wait 

they are waiting for someone to say 

i choose you 

and then carry them away carry them away 

away away away 

ya beauty fades 

like the sun in march like the rain in may 

beauty fades 

like the secret truth of a summer day 

beauty fades 

beauty fades 

and pretty girls do what you can while you're still pretty 

the lines around the eyes are the to show 

so hide your age 

gracefully...
