(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...
