She tried so hard to be pretty
Makeup and beautiful dresses
I wish she knew
How I liked her best
In her home clothes
Hair falling freely down her face
Reading ,thinking, doing something silly
when she thinks I'm not looking
I wish I could tell her
How beautiful she was
And I wish she would believe
I wish she knew that
I liked the gift more than the wrapping
