Beneath your beautiful

You tell all the boys "no". It makes you feel good, yeah. I know you're out of my league but that won't scare me away. Oh, no.

 

You've carried on so long, you couldn't stop if you tried it. You've built your wall so high that no one could climb it, but I'm going to try.

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful? Would you let me see beneath your perfect? Take it off now, girl. Take it off now, girl. I want to see inside. Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight?

You let all the girls go. It makes you feel good, don't it? Behind your Broadway show I heard a boy say "please, don't hurt me".

You've carried on so long, you couldn't stop if you tried it. You've built your wall so high that no one could climb it, but I'm going to try.

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful? Would you let me see beneath your perfect? Take it off now, boy. Take it off now, boy. I want to see inside. Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight? Oh, tonight. See beneath, see beneath... I, I...

 

I'm going to climb on top you ivory tower. I'll hold your hand and then we'll jump right out. And we'll falling, falling, but that's ok 'cause I'll be right here. I just want to know...

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful? Would you let me see beneath your perfect? Take it off now, girl/boy. Take it off now, girl/boy. 'Cause I want to see inside.

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight? Tonight... See beneath your beautiful... Tonight. We ain't perfect, we ain't perfect; no. Would you let me see beneath your beautiful... tonight?
