See me beautiful, look for the best in me
That's what I really am and all I want to be
It may take some time
It may be hard to find
But see me beautiful.See me beautiful, each and every day
Could You take a chance? Could You find a way?
To see me shining through
In everything I do
And see me beautiful.See me beautiful, look for the best in me
That's what I really am and all I want to be
It may take some time
It may be hard to find
But see me beautiful.See me beautiful, each and every day
Could You take a chance? Could You find a way?
To see me shining through
In everything I do
And see me beautiful."See Me Beautiful" by Marshall Rosenberg
