Dust it off, break it down
Get to what we're talkin' about
Do what we're talkin' about
Don't try and hide it now
Why keep on workin' it out?
You can't keep workin' it out.
'Cause I see how he's putting you down,
I just can't be around
Whatchya doin' this for?
'Cause the light in you's starting 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
Don't waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta see it - Don't waste the pretty.
Sit back and breathe it in
Look at how lucky we are
Look at how lucky we are.
This life we're livin' in,
You 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
'Cause I know you can turn this around
Don't be scared, work it out
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 waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta see it - Don't waste the pretty
Now, just in case you need remindin'
Well, you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
And there ain't no use in you hiding,
Cause you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
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 waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way you gotta see it - Don't waste the pretty
Don't waste the pretty, don't waste the pretty
Don't, Don't, Don't waste the pretty
Don't waste the pretty
Don't, Don't, Don't waste the pretty
Don't waste the pretty, Don't waste the pretty
(Well you're beautiful)
Don't waste the pretty, don't waste the pretty
Don't, Don't, Don't waste the pretty
Don't waste the pretty
Don't, Don't, Don't waste the pretty
Don't waste the pretty, Don't waste the pretty
End.
