She met him on a summer's day beneath the sun
His smile was bright his eyes like oceans never done
They danced and laughed under the moon's soft glow
In her heart she thought she'd found a love to grow
"Be careful dear with those who shine
Good looks can mask a heart malign
You'll never have them for yourself
They're stars that burn for someone else"
He whispered promises sweet and kind
She believed in love leaving doubts behind
But soon she saw as shadows grew
His heart was cold his love untrue
"Be careful dear with those who shine
Good looks can mask a heart malign
You'll never have them for yourself
They're stars that burn for someone else"
She cried alone under the starlit sky
Her heart in pieces wondering why
Then she recalled her grandma's voice
In her words she found a choice
"Beauty fades and charm can lie
True love is seen with the inner eye
Remember always guard your heart
From those who play a fleeting part"
Now she walks with lessons learned
In every glance in every turn
She seeks a love that's deep and true
Not just a face with eyes of blue
"Be careful dear with those who shine
Good looks can mask a heart malign
You'll never have them for yourself
They're stars that burn for someone else"
With grandma's wisdom in her soul
She'll find a love that makes her whole
No longer fooled by just a face
She searches now for deeper grace
