Lyrics:

You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off you
You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I’m alive
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off you

Pardon the way that I stare
There’s nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak

And if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it’s real
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off you

I love you, baby, and if it’s quite alright
I need you, baby, to warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh, pretty baby, don’t bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby, now that I’ve found you, stay
And let me love you, baby
Let me love you

You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off you
You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I’m alive
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off you

I love you, baby, and if it’s quite alright
I need you, baby, to warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh, pretty baby, don’t bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby, now that I’ve found you, stay
And let me love you baby
Let me love you
