Standing over the basin
I've been washing my face in
Jet black mascara racing
Down my cheeks 'til I taste it
Staring at my reflection
Every slight imperfection
Staring back at me
Naked as a girl can be

And who would have thought that I'd be so content in my own skin?

Right now the whole world could call me ugly
So what?
To you I'm not
You don't love me 'cause I'm beautiful
Oh no
I'm beautiful 'cause you love me

I can tell you the deepest
And darkest of my secrets
Knowing that you will keep it
And it won't change our feelings
Every mark on my body
You know every inch of me
All the parts that I
Used to hate you glorify

There's a new meaning to freedom when I'm with you

Right now the whole world could call me ugly
So what?
To you I'm not
You don't love me 'cause I'm beautiful
Oh no
I'm beautiful 'cause you love me

Beautiful 'cause you love me

There's a new meaning to freedom when I'm with you

Right now the whole world could call me ugly
So what?
To you I'm not
You don't love me 'cause I'm beautiful
Oh no
I'm beautiful 'cause you love me

Beautiful 'cause you love me
