She was four years old and full of life..
and she was really tryin..
Not to wake her mom...I just got home

When I tiptoed in..she smiled at me..
....and I could plainly see
The makeup on her face... her momma didn't hear me say

You don't need lipstick on an angel
Don't Hang diamonds on the moon
things in life that are beautiful
are just plain beautiful like you

Don't go messin' with perfection
its not what they see its what you do
No you
Don't need lipstick on an angel

She dropped head and then she said
Daddy I made a mess...
Guess I'm in trouble now... but mommy is so beautiful..
I said..
When I first saw your mom...it wasn't how she looked
That made me fall in love...
She was just like you...it was her smile that was shining through...


Cause you don't need lipstick on an angel
Don't Hang diamonds on the moon
things in life that are beautiful
are just plain beautiful like you

Don't go messin' with perfection
It's not what they see its what you do
No you
Don't need lipstick on an angel

When you think about looking beautiful like your momma does..
Just remember...that lipstick is just a start...
True beauty..
..comes from the heart...


You don't need lipstick on an angel
Don't Hang diamonds on the moon
things in life that are beautiful
are just plain beautiful like you

Don't go messin' with perfection
It's not what they see its what you do
No you
Don't need lipstick on an angel

She was 4 years old and full of life
A little older now but shes got it right
