Testo One Thing Of Beauty

One Thing Of BeautyGimme just one thing of beautyTo last me for all of my yearsGimme just one thing of beautyAnd wash away all of my tearsI won't need to get no religionWhen I throw all my burdens awaySo gimme just one thing of beautyAnd I'll stand at this alter and prayGimme one thing of beautyI need one thing of beautyBaby one thing of beautyIt's hard times down on the cornerYeah, there's loneliness out on the streetI mean, everywhere you go there's someone you knowWho suffered some kind of defeatBut there's dreams being dreamed down in the doorwayOf all these places nobody goesYeah the ones that just so many [are] praisingThey're the ones now that nobody knowsThey just need one thing of beautyMaybe one thing of beautyThey need one thing of beauty(That's right...that's all they need)You can keep every diamond and rubyYou can forget all those pharaohs and kingsGimme just one thing of beautyTake away all these material thingsGimme one thing of beautySince it all turns to ashes and dustGimme one thing of beautyYeah, the rest of you can do what you mustBut I need.... (Chorus)There's hard times...There's loneliness down on the streetBut all we need is just one thing....When you go way downYou're looking for one thing....
