Everyone Else Thinks I’m Pretty

everyone else thinks I’m pretty
why, don’t you? they say
my eyes are big as saucers, my smile is something to see
that when I laugh, the sound’s enough
to wake the sleeping sea
to wake the sleeping sea
CHORUS
so where you been, my baby?
where you goin’ to be?
don’t you know that you have what you’re lookin’ for
when you lie down next to me?
everyone else thinks I’m pretty
why, don’t you? they say
my skin is soft as velvet, my lips like dark red wine
that when I talk, the sound’s so soft
it soothes the raging sea
it soothes the raging sea
CHORUS
so where you been, my baby?
where you goin’ to be?
don’t you know that you have what you’re lookin’ for
when you lie down next to me?
everyone else thinks I’m pretty
why, don’t you? they say
there’s beauty in the way I walk, that I move so gracefully
and when I stop, there is no sound
except the waiting sea
except the waiting sea
CHORUS
so where you been, my baby?
where you going to be?
don’t you know that you have what you’re lookin’ for
when you lie down next to me?
TAG
I wish you’d stay, and look at me
and see, what everyone sees
