"Pretty Things" lyrics

"Pretty Things"

Mama's high heels, cherry lipstick
And a goodwill dress
Play pretending, danced for the mirror
A fairytale princess

Pretty things are yours to hold
My pretty thing soon you will know
Pretty things you think you need
But don't make you beautiful
Pretty things will rot with love
Pretty things will fade with time
It's what's inside that makes you shine
My pretty thing

It's only natural, the table's turning
And gracefully I'll learn
How to cradle the one who raised me
Will be too fragile for this world

Pretty things are yours to hold
My pretty thing soon you will know
Pretty things you think you need
But don't make you beautiful
Pretty things will rot with love
Pretty things will fade with time
It's what's inside that makes you shine
My pretty thing

Selfless and faithful
As good as you should be
Open and fearless
Oh, what a gift you gave

Pretty things are yours to hold
My pretty thing soon you will know
Pretty things you think you need
But don't make you beautiful
Pretty things will rot with love
Pretty things will fade with time
It's what's inside that makes you shine
My pretty thing
