Another Beautiful Girl

So... i have three notebooks full of songs. I once let my best friend look at one of them. And other than that, they have been mine. I have played songs out of them for others to hear, but they have never been so nakedly and unabashedly typed into black and white for all the world to see. Luckily though, i think my secret is still safe, just between you and I. Or maybe just myself. At any rate, I will go out on a limb and share a song with you. The song feels so naked without the accompaniments of a guitar and voice. I don't feel it's worthy to be called poetry, only song lyrics.

Verse 1:
Olive Skin
Chocolate Hair
Chestnut Eyes
I know I'm staring
She supposes
that what she knows is
what it's like for all the paintings on the wall
they say Another Beautiful Girl
Another Beautiful Girl
Just Another Beautiful Girl
Another Beautiful Girl

Verse 2:
All her life
Object eyes
No one knows
What's inside
She supposes
'Who needs roses'
for when she's wilting there's a dozen more for sale
Another Beautiful Girl
Another Beautiful Girl
Just Another Beautiful Girl
Another Beautiful Girl

Take heart my dear!
Wait through the years
For the captivated an
Who knows what hearts are for
Reach inside the frame
Know the girl behind the name
And like none that came before
Show you that you're so much more
Than Another Beautiful Girl

Bridge:
And so my queen
Wait for your king
and guard your heart
from the ones who think it's a disposable thing.

Take heart my dear!
Wait through the years

Who knows what hearts are for
Reach inside the frame
Know the girl behind the name
And like none that came before
Show you that you're so much more
