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 look 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 look by it´s lover
Maybe my coldness is a mask, maybe your loving ways will last
But can´t judge a book by it´s cover

Somewhere beyond the skin, somewhere deep within (somewhere, somewhere)
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, baby, 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, baby, ooh
And you can´t judge a look 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 look by it´s lover
