Tom T. Hall
Beauty Is A Fading Flower
[Verse 1:]
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

[Chorus:]
Beauty is a fading flower

[Verse 2:]
You have never known love
You've never learned to hate
When these emotions find you
They'll leave lines in your face

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Love is not all beauty
Love is not all form
Winter wilts the flowers
Love can keep you warm
[Chorus]
