Somebody Beautiful Just Undid Me

(album: Tenterfield Saddler - 1972)

I like to say that I much prefer
Character to beauty in the ones I choose to love
Cause the physical thing never lasts as long
As intelligent people do when they get together

Cause somebody beautiful just undid me
Smiled and then they knew they had me
I'm in love at my first sight
Wondering how to get you for just one night
Oh, God it's good to be undone again

I can't ignore the shape of you
It's happened before but I'll just forget that too
Cause it won't last long just a day or two
But maybe I'll get a couple of songs from you

Cause somebody beautiful just undid me
And you say they like me too
Sir, you wouldn't kid me

I'm in love with my first sight
Wondering how I'm gonna get you
For just one more night
Oh, God it's good to be undone again

There's a lot of great books
And there's a lot of cheap music
A lot of tears to cry in the dark of old movies
But one serious night of drinking
While I just sit home thinking

Joni Mitchell should be queen of the world
She really understands me that girl

But your legs are long and your eyes of blue
And if I was dumb I'd just get lost in you
Oh, I forgot to say that happened yesterday
Now I'm singing this song for someone even better

Somebody beautiful just undid me
Smiled and then they knew they had me
I'm in love at my first sight
Seems like years but it was just last night
Oh, God it's good to be undone again
