Can't Take My Eyes Off of You (Frankie Valli cover)

Lauryn Hill

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch (heaven to touch)
I wanna hold you so much (hold you so much)
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive (I'm alive)
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you (a one two, a one two)

Pardon the way that I stare (the way that I stare)
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak (words left to speak)
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that is real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you (a one two, a one two)

I need you, baby (word)
And if it's quite all right
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely nights (word)
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say okay (when I say, it's okay)

Oh, pretty baby (oh word)
Don't let me down I pray (oh word)
Oh, pretty baby (oh word)
Now that I've found you stay (oh word)
And let me love you, oh baby
Let me love you, oh baby

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you (eyes off of you)
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much (hold you so much)
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you (a one two, a one two)

I need you, baby (baby)
And if it's quite all right (quite all night)
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely nights (lonely nights)
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say it's okay

Oh, pretty baby
Don't let me down I pray
Oh, pretty baby
Now that I've found you, stay
And let me love you, oh baby
Let me love you, oh baby

I need you, baby (baby)
And if it's quite all right
I love you, baby (baby, baby, baby)
You warm the lonely nights
I need you, baby
Trust in me when I say it's okay

Oh, oh, pretty baby
Don't let me down I pray
Oh, pretty baby
Now that I've found you, stay
And let me love you, oh baby
Let me love you, oh baby

    BEST song ever!!! so sweet!! Pardon the way that I stare. There's nothing else to compare. The sight of you leaves me weak. There are no words left to speak. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. You'd be like heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived. And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. i love it!!!!

More Featured Meanings

Another Love
Tom Odell
I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Album art
Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following: "We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..." With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."

Indigo
Of Mice & Men
This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
