LYRICS:
Just when I thought you hadn’t seen me
I was down feelin’ the strain
Just when I thought the moment had gone
You looked my way and my life changed

At first it was all so unreal
I adored you from afar
‘Cause being so close felt like torture
Like an out of reach candy jar

Looks are given freely
Looks can change your life
Looks they can be savoured
Or just as easily cast aside
Be careful where yours land next time

Lived for the thrill of being with you
Could have sworn you were heaven sent
You reminded me of an angel
Pure, sweet and innocent

We spent some time alone together
Though other people filled the room
Admiring you from the very back row
My sunshine amidst the gloom

Looks are given freely
Looks can change your life
Looks they can be savoured
Or just as easily cast aside
Be careful where yours land next time

I tried to find a little courage
Like the story with Dorothy
One moment in time walking the line
I had to let my heart run free

To you I was merely a stranger
While you were all the rage
But I was prepared to risk everything
For an appearance on your stage

Looks are given freely
Looks can change your life
Looks they can be savoured
Or just as easily cast aside – ohohoh
Looks are given freely
Looks can change your life
Looks they can be savoured
Or just as easily cast aside
Be careful where yours land next time – wohohoh
Be careful where yours land next time
