Don't Waste The Pretty

Dust it off, break it down
Get to what we're talking about
Do what we're talking about
Don't try and hide it now
Why keep on working it out
You can't keep working it out

'Cuz I see how he's putting you down
I just can't be around
What you're doing this for?

'Cuz the light in you started to fade
Don't let it get away
Girl, you're worth so much more

Don't waste the pretty on him
Don't waste the pretty on pain
When it gets too much to take,
Don't give it away
So don't waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta say it
Don't waste the pretty, yeah

Sit back and breathe it in
Look at how lucky we are
Look at how lucky we are
This life worth living in
You've gotta follow your heart
You know I'm never too far
Away from the pain in your eyes
I can see your disguise
But it's not too late (it's not too late)
'Cuz I know you can't turn this around
Don't be scared, work it out
And listen when I say (listen when I say)

Don't waste the pretty on him
Don't waste the pretty on pain
When it gets too much to take,
Don't give it away (don't give it away)
Don't waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta say it
Don't waste the pretty, yeah

And just in case you need reminding
Where you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
And there is no use in your heart ache
'Cuz you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Don't waste the pretty on him (him)
Don't waste the pretty on pain (pain)
When it gets too much to take,
Don't give it away (don't give it away)
Don't waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta say it
Don't waste the pretty

Don't waste the pretty ...
Where you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, yeah
Don't waste the pretty ...
