Lyrics

BEAUTIFUL PLEASURE
by Tommy Malta
Princess, you're a devil in a dress - now you're all a mess
She loves the light - I'm out at night - she was right
My princess - I profess - Babe you gonna settle for less?
I got a restless soul and a song in my heart - music in my mind
A man left behind - it spoke to me
He said you can't change a bird - no, a bird is free
Well baby, I'm a bird, and you can't change me
You can't cage me - if I let you cage me,
What kind of bird would I be?

Beautiful pleasure, I'm falling for you
I never said I love you, but I do
You'd never know, but I was misty mountain dew
Cause I couldn't just love you - I couldn't just love you

Beautiful Pleasure, I'm falling for you
I love you but I never said "I do"
You listened to every word -I never said - I was true
I didn't just love you

I can see you having fun - lying in the sun
Love can make you blind - but we're easy to find
When we're going nowhere

Beautiful PLeasure, I'm dying for you
But that ain't nothing to what I put you through
But my mind is my own - and I lose it when I roam
Why can't I just love you
Beautiful pleasure, I'm calling for you
You're hurting now, but you'll find something new
I'll never show you that old misty mountain dew
You broke our house of love - you said we're through

When them walls came down, you were bleeding on the ground
You knew I was too good to be true
You could have counted on me - anytime at all
While I still loved you
