YOU CANT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER
WRITERS STEVIE WONDER, HENRY COSBY, SYLVIA MOY
COPYRIGHT 1969
Hey there miss fine
Sweet little clinging vine
Your actions kind of show me you love me truly, yeah
Youre warmer than July, sweet as apple pie
I cant let you know youre getting to me
Yeah, cause you cant judge a book by its cover
My papa used to say look child, look beyond a tender smile
Cause cant judge a book by its lover
Girl, Im sweet on you
Though you cant see through this unconcerned expression Ive been wearing
Hey, I practice looking bored so you can feel ignored
But that dont mean that Im not really caring
Yeah, cause you cant judge a book by its cover
And you cant judge a book by its lover
Maybe my coldness is a mask, maybe your loving will last
But cant judge a book by its cover
Somewhere beyond the skin, somewhere deep within
We may find that love is there to test us, yeah
But weve got to have the nerve to give it all it deserves
And maybe well find something precious
Yeah, cause you cant judge a book by its cover
Only time its gonna show, only time will let us know
Cause you cant judge a book by its cover
And you cant judge a book by its lover
Weve got to search each others minds
Weve got to read between the lines
Oh, take a different look
And make our hearts an open book
Oh, you cant judge a book by its cover
No, no, no, no
And you cant judge a book by its lover
