This song is about how love changes people and, in particular, makes them beautiful. This is the same as the warning that Lucretius gives about trying to avoid love because it affects our judgment of beauty.

Time is slipping away
Days go by, fade away
With one eye opened, one closed
I think you know
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful
Thoughts swirl, spinning around
Weary, falling down
When out of the darkness a hand
Reach out
Hold fast
[Chorus]
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful
Turn round this time
Love is there to find
Lift your head and see
Open uo your eyes
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful
Listen to the song:
Love Will Make You Beautiful
