Oh girl why won't you let me in into your beautiful skin
The skin that you're hiding under those clothes you're wearing
You say that it's a sin but I can see you smiling
And you make all the boys grin with your beautiful skin

Oh girl why won't you let me in into your beautiful skin
The skin that you're hiding under those clothes you're wearing
You say that it's a sin but I can see you smiling
And you make all the boys grin with your beautiful skin

Don't mistake me for the green eyed fool
Just come lay with me in the morning dew
We'll go swim in the sea of eternal young
Don't mistake me for the green eyed fool
The green eyed fool
The green eyed fool
The green eyed fool

She is the one who is floating around in my dreams
She is the one who is bigger than life it seems
She is the one who used to come knock on my door
She is the one who doesn't come knocking no more

But I'm not the green eyed fool
The green eyed fool
The green eyed fool
The green eyed fool

She is the one who is floating around in my dreams
She is the one who is bigger than life it seems
She is the one who used to come knock on my door
She is the one who doesn't come knocking no more

Well I may be in love with your beautiful skin
But I'm not the green eyed fool
