Beauty Is Real

So I've been all about folk music lately, I just love something about the songwriting and chill guitar. So I decided to have some fun and write my own folky kind of song. Now I can't sing worth a darn, but this one is fun to play when no one is home! Here are the lyrics.

Beauty Is Real

feel like a blind man these days
people showing me colors but I just see grey
Don't you know the grey became all I settled for
And baby I forgot at a time, you made me sure

I love my Lord, and the life he's given me
But sometimes I wonder if we were meant to be
I tell my eyes to open at these girls all lovely
They whisper don't bother, she's the only one to see

And that's alright
with me
I've come to peace complete
No such thing as defeat
This life is still so sweet

Because I'd rather be a fool in a world you exist
Than a king in a world where there's another to kiss
Just the fact that God made a girl like you
Gives me hope in two things,
God is good, and beauty is real

If the world stays a dark place to live
And I grow up a boy with his heart left to give
Don't call me a loner, you couldn't be more wrong
Time has spoken and he's still singing your song

And that's alright
with me
I've come to peace complete
No such thing as defeat
I have cement on my feet

Because I'd rather be a fool in a world you exist
Than a king in a house where there's another to kiss
Just the fact that God made a girl like you
Gives me hope in two things,
God is good, and beauty is real

Now you may call me crazy, and girl that might be true
But what you don't know is I don't need to get over you
They might say it's impossible to live life this way
But one smile a year from you, makes the pain worth the stay

It's not that your perfect, we've all told our lies
But life just make sense when I catch a glimpse of your eyes
So why would I throw that away claiming another's hand
Though you'll slip through my fingers like smallest bits of sand

And that's alright
with me
I've come to peace complete
No such thing as defeat
This world will still remain sweet

Because I'd rather be a fool in a world you exist
Than a king in a house where there's another to kiss
Just the fact that God made a girl like you
Gives me hope in two things,
God is good, and beauty is real
