Santa Esmeralda - Only Beauty Survives Lyrics

ONLY BEAUTY SURVIVES

And so they bring down the curtain
Leaving an empty stage
Only the beauty survives
Fate with its eyes of stone
Simply looks away
Leaving its victims behind

Only beauty survives
In spite of a world gone crazy
Where even a friend is so hard to find

Only beauty survives
An innocent heart will conquer all
Including that heartless voyeur of time

She was the child
He was the face of man
And yet the beauty survives

Ashes to ashes
Everyone takes the stand
To face the personal trial

But only beauty survives
The buildings and bridges crumble
Whole empires go stumbling into the dust

Only beauty survives
The pointless battle for power rages
Only innocent love remains untouched

(musical interlude)
(guitar solo)

Only beauty survives
The facts and faces are soon forgotten
No trace or path is truly alive

Only beauty survives
Out of the hopeless and broken nations
Only a beauty that can't be touched survives

Only beauty...
