E D A
You pulled up and parked your El Dorado
E D A
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
G D A
Like the cat and canary

I said, "Baby, it's scary
Em
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
E D A
I know once I just hauled off and hit you

To be perfectly candid,

Baby, you're beautiful

Late that night, we checked into the Bellevue
E D A
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

By the view
