About So Beautiful

"You Are So Beautiful" is a song written by Billy Preston and Bruce Fisher that was first released in 1974 on Preston's ninth studio album, The Kids & Me. It was also the B-side of his single "Struttin'". Later that same year, English singer Joe Cocker released a slower version of the song on his album I Can Stand a Little Rain. Cocker's version was produced by Jim Price, and released as a single in November 1974. It became one of Cocker's biggest chart hits, peaking at number five on the United States' Billboard Hot 100, and at number four on Canada's Top Singles chart. Some sources credit Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys with contributing to the song's genesis. Wilson performed the song live with the Beach Boys from the late 1970s onwards. Kenny Rankin, Ray Stevens, Kenny Rogers, Bonnie Tyler and Brian Kennedy are also among the artists who have covered "You Are So Beautiful". The song has also been featured in numerous movies, television shows, and ads.

You're such a precious shorty
Girl tonight I'm gonna take full control
Come on

I've been waiting for this moment with you
To play alone in my bedroom
Your touch has got me in the mood
Tonight I'm gonna do something to you
Open up don't be afraid

Let me do what I want to do
I can please you in every way
I'll send shivers down your spine
Girl this thing will blow your mind.

So come and lay your body right here
Girl you're beautiful
Shorty let me touch you right there
You're so beautiful
I can't wait to tear it off
You're beautiful
Let's keep the lights on so I
Can see how beautiful

So you like the places I just kissed
I can do it again and again
I don't just want to slide right in
I want to take my time and get you ready

Let me do what I want to do
I can please you in every way
I'll send shivers down your spine
Girl this thing will blow your mind.

So come and lay your body right here
Girl you're beautiful
Shorty let me touch you right there
You're so beautiful
I can't wait to tear it off
You're beautiful
Let's keep the lights on so I
Can see how beautiful

If you could only see
What we could grow to be
It's so mind blowing
How much I want you
It feels like ecstasy
Underneath the sheets
So can you fulfill my dreams?
And make love to me

Let me do what I want to do
I can please you in every way
I'll send shivers down your spine
Girl this thing will blow your mind.

Let me do what I want to do
I can please you in every way
I'll send shivers down your spine
Girl this thing will blow your mind.
