Destiny

Paddy Gibney

I saw her face on a late night TV screen

I saw her face on the cover of a magazine

My destination, my thought's unclean

She must have been some kind of beauty queen



That kind of beauty

That kind of beauty makes me sad

That kind of beauty

That kind of beauty makes me bad

I close my eyes and drift into fantasy

Till she is lying right there next to me

So suddenly real, I see her vanity

She's not the girl I thought she'd be



That kind of beauty

Her kind of beauty makes me sad

That kind of beauty

I realize drives me mad. Yeah



Rock n Roll it stole my soul

When I realized that music sets me free

Oh how it sets me free

Where my reality is fantasy

Pain don't mean that much to me

Because beauty, that beauty

Tears the heart from me



My little problem makes life so tough

Too many people have called my bluff

Pretty soon I'll run out of luck

I'm off home to you my love

I've had enough



That kind of beauty, your kind of beauty

Makes me sad

That kind of beauty, I realize

I've often had, and it drives me mad

Makes me sad, oh so bad

Now I'm bad
