Beauty’s Only Skin Deep

[Verse 1]
I was born beautiful
Eighteen years ago
Got the super silver smile
My hair it shines like gold
No one on earth
Has ever said to me
I read between the lines
You have a beautiful mind

[Chorus]
Beauty's only skin deep
It doesn't mean I'm cold
Beauty's only skin deep
I need a hand to hold me

[Verse 2]
I've been sad and lonely
In every way I know
Good looks don't mean a thing
When you're crying in the cold
No one anywhere
Has ever said to me
Tell me who you really are
And what you rеally feel

[Chorus]
Beauty's only skin deep
It doesn't mean I'm cold
Bеauty's only skin deep
I need a hand to hold me

[Bridge]
Here I am in the flesh
So what are you waiting for
Why not let me surprise you
With what I'm living for
We could stop the roles we play
I wouldn't have to go
And I could be so happy
If you'd stay

[Verse 3]
I've been left for dead
By those who didn't care
They never considered me
Or took me anywhere
I've got the songs to sing
And movies I must make
If you don't get to know me soon
I think my heart will break

[Outro]
Beauty's only skin deep
It doesn't mean I'm cold
Beauty's only skin deep
I need a hand
I need a hand to hold me
