YOU CAN`T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT`S COVER

Hey there miss fine
Sweet little clinging vine
Your actions kind of show me you love me truly, yeah
You`re warmer than July, sweet as apple pie
I can`t let you know you`re getting to me

Yeah, �cause you can`t judge a book by it`s cover
My papa used to say “look child, look beyond a tender smile
�Cause can`t judge a book by it`s lover”

Girl, I`m sweet on you
Though you can`t see through this unconcerned expression I`ve been wearing
Hey, I practice looking bored so you can feel ignored
But that don`t mean that I`m not really caring
Yeah, �cause you can`t judge a book by it`s cover
And you can`t judge a book by it`s lover”
Maybe my coldness is a mask, maybe your loving will last
But can`t judge a book by it`s cover

Somewhere beyond the skin, somewhere deep within
We may find that love is there to test us, yeah
But we`ve got to have the nerve to give it all it deserves
And maybe we`ll find something precious
Yeah, �cause you can`t judge a book by it`s cover
Only time it`s gonna show, only time will let us know
�Cause you can`t judge a book by it`s cover
And you can`t judge a book by it`s lover
We`ve got to search each other`s minds
We`ve got to read between the lines
Oh, take a different look
And make our hearts an open book
Oh, you can`t judge a book by it`s cover
No, no, no, no
And you can`t judge a book by it`s lover
