Lyrics for Song: Beauty Is Only Skin Deep
Lyrics for Album: 50th Anniversary: Singles Collection 1961-1971 [2011]
So in love, sad as could be
Cause a pretty face got the best of me
Suddenly, you came into my life
And gave it meaning and pure delight
Now good looks I've learned to do without
Cause now I know it's love that really counts.
Cause I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah.)
I know that beauty's only skin deep, yes it is.
Now you speak your words warm and sincere,
And let's me know that your love is here.
A pretty face you may not possess,
But what I like about you is your tenderness.
A pretty face maybe some guys taste
But i'll take lovin' in it's place.
Cause I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
I know that beauty's only skin deep, yes it is
Oh baby, oh yea
(Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah)
(Beauty's only skin deap, yeah yeah yeah.)
Ooo-hoo-hoo
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yea.)
Yes it is.
My friends ask, what do I see in you
But it goes deeper than the eye can view.
You have a pleasin' personality
And thats an ever lovin' rare quality
Now show me a girl, a girl thats fine
And I'll choose the one with true lovin every time.
Cause I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
And I beleive that...
beauty's only skin deep.
So if you're lookin' for a lover, (Oh yeah)
Don't judge a book by it's cover. (Oh yeah)
She may be fine on the outside, (Oh yeah)
But so untrue on the inside. (Oh yeah)
Beauty is only skin deep
