It was up to me, up to me
To keep you beautiful
It was up to me, up to me
To keep you beautiful
And it was up to me, up to me
It was something that I couldn't see
I got too hung up in my own nonsense
To keep you beautiful
I run the comb through your hair
I keep you beautiful
Your powder and your blush
I keep you beautiful
Your lashes and those eyes
I keep you beautiful
Your lip-stain on my fingertips
I keep you beautiful
But the days they fell on me
With such inevitability
I got hung up and I let you down
You're so beautiful
You're so beautiful
Babe, I don't know if I was here when I met you
And baby, I feel like I'm just arriving
I loved you right from the start
From when I opened the box
The curves and the colours I chose
Were so beautiful
Were so beautiful
Were so beautiful
Were so beautiful
Were so beautiful
Were so beautiful
