Blinded by beauty

When i was a little girl
i wanted my daddy to love me
my only wishes were to be pretty
so he could be proud you see

i wished for long hair
and a beautiful smile
i wanted to be thin enough
so i could feel worth while

before i went to sleep at night
id sit in bed and pray
that one day id be beautiful
so that we would never stray

the endless tears i cried
the love i longed for
i thought could be cured by looks
but i never knew for sure

i simply thought it would be better
if my father were proud of me
but when my prayes were answered
the fake love i could see

a little girl blinded by beauty
brought on by years of pain
cause of a dad with to much pride
that drove a little girl insane

now she is pretty on the outside
but blinded by perfection
wanting to be prettier again
so the love could be true affection
