Beauty Is a Fading Flower

(Tom T. Hall)



Beauty is a fading flower

Tomorrow it may be gone

Beauty is a fading flower

Love goes on and on.



Today everybody wants you

Brand new is better than old

Who will want you tomorrow

There's beauty in your soul.



Beauty is a fading flower

Tomorrow it may be gone

Beauty is a fading flower

Love goes on and on.



You have never known love

You've never learned to hate

When these emotions find you

They'll leave lines in your face.



Beauty is a fading flower

Tomorrow it may be gone

Beauty is a fading flower

Love goes on and on.



Love is not all beauty

Love is not all form

Winter wilts the flowers

Love can keep you warm.



Beauty is a fading flower

Tomorrow it may be gone

Beauty is a fading flower

Love goes on and on...
