I've held you in awe for so many years   Only now do I know what I'm seeing   I've analyzed every word that you've said   To find a deeper meaning      It went beyond curiosity   It almost became an obsession   To find a mere glance of love in your eyes   A mere glance of love in your eyes      You've got lines in your face from forced smiles   The sadness beginning to show in your eyes   You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty   Hide it anymore      And you find it harder to live in your guise   Time has not been very kind   You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty   Hide it anymore, la, la, la, la, la      You still like being what you call free?   Its comfort must lie somewhat thin   Hopeful lovers linger only so long   While you hide what lies within      Do you still like being a mystery?   It's lost much of its appeal   From an idol above understanding   To a loner who's tragically real      You've got lines in your face from forced smiles   The sadness beginning to show in your eyes   You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty   Hide it anymore      And you find it harder to live in your guise   Time has not been very kind   You can't hide it anymore, sad beauty   Hide it anymore      It's been a rough life   A very tough life   (Sad beauty)   You can't hide it anymore      Hide it anymore   (Sad beauty)   Sad beauty, sad beauty, sad beauty   Hide it anymore      Sad beauty, sad beauty, sad beauty   Sad beauty, la, la, la, la, la
