 You pulled up and parked your El Dorado

 We said "hi" and kissed with some bravado

 I got out my camera and was laughing

 Happy it was you I'm photographing

 And we drove to the ferry

 Like the cat and canary

 I said, "Baby, it's scary

 When it's so beautiful

 Why does it hurt me

To feel so much tenderness?

Beautiful

You little wonder, you"

 Maybe then I held your hand and kissed you

 I know once I just hauled off and hit you

 'Cause I can't even stand it

 'Cause I don't want to end it

 To be perfectly candid,

 Baby, you're beautiful

 Sometimes it hurts me

 To feel so much tenderness

Beautiful

Wish you could see it, too

 And all I have to do today

 Is make you happy

 The only thing you have to say

 Is, "It's all lovely, baby"

 Late that night, we checked into the Bellevue

 Held you close, but, baby - couldn't tell you

 And we stayed in our Calvins

 And we swore we'd be best friends

 And I looked through the zoom lens

 And thought you were beautiful

 Sometimes it hurts me

 To feel so much tenderness

Beautiful

 Baby, I'm dazzled

 By the view

Beautiful

 You don't need to tell me

 I'm completely powerless

Beautiful

 I wish you could see it, too

 I wish you could see it, too

 I wish you could see it, too

 Baby, how I see you
