You were once a sweet little girl
so innocent and pure
your eyes were open and sure
anyone could look right in

and i followed closely your gaze
you looked up towards the sky
and i watched your face drift away
to the things that caught your eye

oh, the magazines and media supplied you with a plastic protocol
oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all

but all I can say is I knew you before
you were beautiful back then
before you grew up
before you gave in

and you dream of sharing your heart
instead you share your bed
you heart beats empty and cold
for all the tears you've shed

you dream of bearing your soul
instead you bear more skin
and you wear dark glasses to keep
anyone from looking in

oh, the magazines and media supplied you with a plastic protocol
oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all

but all I can say is I knew you before
you were beautiful back then
before you grew up
before you gave in

all you want is to hear the words
"dear baby i love you"
so you hike your skirt, higher still
'til their eyes are all on you

you're driving fast foreign cars
the color of your sin
and you tint your windows to keep
anyone from looking in

but all I can say is I knew you before
you were beautiful back then
before you grew up
before you gave in

but all I can say is I knew you before
you were beautiful back then
you could be beautiful again
