Skin Deep

(I like, I like) I like the shallow water I like the open dell And I prefer the secret That I'm allowed to tell (I like, I like) I like the happy ending I like the flying start And I prefer the carefree To be light at heart I don't believe There's seething under the surface I don't believe There're answers behind the obvious And honestly, I speak With my tongue in my cheek Beauty, beauty is only skin-deep (I like, I like) I like the sugarcoated I don't think that Nick is old And I believe that all That glitters must be gold (I like, I like) I swim above the water Naivety is my friend The water of forgetfulness Allows me to pretend I don't believe There's seething under the surface I don't believe There're answers behind the obvious I don't believe There's seething under the surface I don't believe There're answers behind the obvious And honestly I speak With my tongue in my cheek Beauty, beauty is only skin-deep
