  27547>Please dry your eyes, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  It's not your fault, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  You're not the one to blame
  Soon it will be okay
  One day you'll realize
  Your beauty
 
 
  It was a Saturday
  This cold afternoon
  Inside this house there lived a frightened young girl
  She didn't know what she should do
  Cuz she missed her mother so
  She was left home all alone with her step father
 
 
  Please dry your eyes, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  It's not your fault, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  You're not the one to blame
  Soon it will be okay
  One day you'll realize
  Your beauty
 
 
  He touched her places
  That he shouldn't have touched
  He did some things to her
  That he shouldn't have done
  And she ran into her room
  Paged her mother 9-1-1
  And the tragedy began
  For this young girl
 
 
  She told her mother, her family, and friends
  No one believed her cuz before this happened
  She was filled with hate and anger
  Towards her step father
  Cuz he took her mother from her when they married
 
 
  Please dry your eyes, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  It's not your fault, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  You're not the one to blame
  Soon it will be okay
  One day you'll realize
  Your beauty
 
 
  She looked for a father
  In the men that she saw and
  Thought that all she had to offer was her body
  No one could figure out why
  This young girl would live her life
  In such pain and unhappiness
  She was so beautiful
 
 
  She rebelled and one day the young girl fell in love with another man like her stepdad
  He abused her emotionally and made her feel like she was worthless
  Hope one day she'll realize
  And see the beauty in her eyes
  All she needs is prayer and strength
  She's beautiful
 
 
  Please dry your eyes, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  It's not your fault, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  You're not the one to blame
  Soon it will be okay
  One day you'll realize
  Your beauty
 
 
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  It's not your fault, young girl
  Don't cry, you're beautiful
  You're not the one to blame
  Soon it will be okay
  One day you'll realize
  Your beauty
 
 
  Don't hold your head down low
  You've got so much, so much, so much, so much, so much to be proud of
  You can still live your life
  I promise you you'll survive
  Girl I love you
  You're beautiful
