Jill Sobule - Bad Beauty lyrics

I've held you in awe for so many years Only now do I know what I'm seeing I've an*lyzed every word that you've said To find a deeper meaning It went beyond curiosity It almost became an obsession To find a mere glance of love in your eyes A mere glance of love in your eyes You've got lines in your face from forced smiles The sadness is beginning to show in your eyes You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty Hide it anymore And you find it hard to live in your guise Time has not been very kind You can't hide it anymore Hide it anymore Do you still like being what you call free? Its comfort must lie somewhat thin Hopeful lovers linger only so long While you hide what lies within Do you still like being a mystery? It's lost much of its appeal From an idol above understanding To a loner who's tragically real You've got lines in your face from forced smiles The sadness is beginning to show in your eyes You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty Hide it anymore And you find it hard to live in your guise Time has not been very kind You can't hide it anymore Hide it anymore It's been a rough life A very tough life (Sad beauty) You can't hide it anymore Hide it anymore (Sad beauty) Sad beauty
