Beautiful Soul

Jesse McCartney · Right Where You Want Me [2006]

[Chorus]

I don't want another pretty face

I don't want just anyone to hold

I don't want my love to go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul

You're the one I wanna chase

You're the one I wanna hold

I won't let another minute go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul



I know that you are something special

To you, I'd be always faithful

I want to be

What you always needed

Then I'll hope you see the heart in me



[Chorus]

I don't want another pretty face

I don't want just anyone to hold

I don't want my love to go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul

You're the one I wanna chase

You're the one I wanna hold

I won't let another minute go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul

Your beautiful soul, yeah



You might need time to think it over

But I'm just fine moving forward

I'll ease your mind if you give me the chance

I'll never make you cry c'mon let's try



[Chorus]

I don't want another pretty face

I don't want just anyone to hold

I don't want my love to go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul

You're the one I wanna chase

You're the one I wanna hold

I won't let another minute go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul



Am I crazy for wanting you

Maybe do you think you could want me too

I don't wanna waste your time

Do you see things the way I do

I just wanna know that you feel it too

There is nothing left to hide



[Chorus]

I don't want another pretty face

I don't want just anyone to hold

I don't want my love to go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul

You're the one I wanna chase

You're the one I wanna hold

I won't let another minute go to waste

I want you and your soul



I don't want another pretty face

I don't want just anyone to hold

I don't want my love to go to waste

I want you and your beautiful soul



Beautiful soul, yeah

Oh, yeah

Your beautiful soul, yeah
