The Lines in Your Face

They show me you lived the life you chose
They show me you love your loved ones
They show me you laughed and had fun
They show me you are very much alive

They show me you care
They show me you feel
They show me you sense

So Show me why I shouldn’t like you?
Show me why I shouldn’t care about you?
Show me why I shouldn’t love you?

They show me you!
They show me a beautiful person!

The lines in your face is what makes you beautiful
