Pretty Fades Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey little lover do you see me
Oh I really care what you think
All dressed up and it’s all for show
Gotta play the part just so you know
That this is me baby, it’s what you like
Lipstick ready, painted eyes
Oh I got your focus just for now
But I know it’ll leave you when it all fades out
When it all fades out

[Chorus]
Gotta have it think I need it cause I want it but hold up wait
When I’m looking in the mirror gotta tell myself that the pretty fades
When I’m older and I wake up with no makeup and my body changes
Will you tell me that I’m perfect
I want someone when the pretty fades
When the pretty fades

[Verse 2]
Hey television can’t think straight got me believing that I can’t age
Trying to convince but I know the truth
There's something more beautiful than my youth
Hey little darlin' dry your tears
Don’t be scared of another year
Soon well be laughing at our old mistakes
Lovin' every line on our wrinkled face
And it's all ok

[Chorus]
Gotta have it think I need it cause I want it but hold up wait
When I’m looking in the mirror gotta tell myself that the pretty fades
When I’m older and I wake up with no makeup and my body changes
Will you tell me that I’m perfect
I want someone when the pretty fades

[Bridge]
All that’s left will be
Hiding underneath
The pretty fades
I just want somebody to love all of me
When the pretty fades
When the pretty fades

[Chorus]
Gotta have it think I need it cause I want it but hold up wait
When I’m looking in the mirror gotta tell myself that the pretty fades
When I’m older and I wake up with no makeup and my body changes
Will you tell me that I’m perfect
I want someone when the pretty fades
Will you love me, will you love me
Will you love me when the pretty fades?
