Beauty Is Only Skin Deep

Beauty Is Only Skin Deep - Smokey Robinson/The Miracles

So in love sad as I 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

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

You speak your words warm and sincere

And let's me know that your love is near

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

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

My friends ask what do I see in you

But it goes deeper than the eye can view

You have a pleasin' personality

And that's an ever lovin' rare quality

Now show me a girl a girl that's fine

And I'll choose the one with true lovin' every time

Cause I know that

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

Beauty's only skin deep yeah yeah yeah

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

So unkind on the inside Oh yeah
