Skin Deep

Many people
Tell you that they're your friend
You believe them
You need them
For what's round the river bend

Make sure that you're
Receiving the signals they send
'Cause, brother
You've only got two hands to lend

Maybe
There's someone who makes you weep
And some nights
Loom up ahead
When you're asleep

Some days
There's things on your mind you should keep
Sometimes
It's tougher to look than to leap

(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Better watch out for the skin deep
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Better watch out for the skin deep

(Brother, watch out)
Watch out for the skin deep
(Brother, watch out)
watch out for the skin deep
Better watch out for the skin deep

One day
The track that you're climbing gets steep
Your emotions are frayed
And your nerves
Are starting to creep

Just remember the days
As long as the time that you keep
Brother, you'd better watch out for the skin deep

(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Better watch out for the skin deep
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Better watch out for the skin deep

(Brother, watch out)
Watch out for the skin deep
(Brother, watch out)
Watch out for the skin deep
Better watch out for the skin deep

(Oooh)
(Repeat to fade)

Skin Deep

by BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

Keep telling me youre skin deep
And I believe you.
Youre telling me talk is cheap.
But you wont need to.

Keep telling me good things come to those who wait,
And I wont be there.
Youll find out for yourself, soon enough.

I wont try to make it right.
Or make it understood.
When that point of view means nothing to you.

The futures bleak,
And youre uneasy.
Target weakness,
Still twisted.

Keep telling me good things come to those who wait,
And I wont be there.
Youll find out for yourself, soon enough.

I wont try to make it right.
Or make it understood.
When that point of view means nothing to you.

(Instrumental Break)

The futures bleak,
And youre uneasy.
Target weakness,
Still twisted.

Keep telling me good things come to those who wait,
And I wont be there.
Youll find out for yourself, soon enough.

I wont try to make it right.
Or make it understood
When that point of view means nothing to you.

Im hearing the, Im hearing the,
Im hearing the same excuses.
Im hearing the, Im hearing the,
Im hearing the same excuses.
(repeated in background)

Keep telling me good things come to those who wait,
And I wont be there.
Youll find out for yourself, soon enough.

I wont try to make it right.
Or make it understood
When that point of view means nothing to you.

Skin Deep

by Maxwell

I ain't asking you to keep no secrets
My reputation already shot
I ain't asking you to commit treason
Just tell me if you like it or not
Like it or not baby that's they way I want it to be
Don't give your heart and soul
My love is only skin deep

I'll give you my time and money
I'll give you somewhere to sleep
But don't ask me for my heart and soul
My love is only skin deep
My love is only skin deep
My love is only skin deep

I ain't looking for no blue-eyed lover
That's what stole my baby away
I can see your eyes are darker than midnight
And that's the time that I want to play
I want to play baby that's they way I want it to be
Don't give me your heart and soul
My love is only skin deep

I'll give you my time and money
I'll give you somewhere to sleep
But don't ask me for my heart and soul
My love is only skin deep
My love is only skin deep
My love is only skin deep

Skin Deep

by Alisha Chinai/Alisha Chinoy/Mahalaxmi Iyer/Sonu Nigam

This attraction only to appearance
becoming your religion, looks are everything
the only thing that means something to you
satisfaction only on the surface, your eyes are always focused
go on and let it show, that there is no exception to the rule

so fill the empty space
with another pretty face

you're skin deep, skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
you're skin deep, skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize

first impressions
are over in an instant
you make your decision before you speak a word
you end you search the page already turned
every conquest filled with disappointment, lacking any substance
now you're out of words, the lines are blurred you're never gonna learn

so fill the empty space
with another pretty face

you're skin deep, skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
you're skin deep, skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize

look all your life for beauty this fine
so rare so hard to find
look all your life for beauty this fine
never mind what's inside

you're skin deep, skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
you're skin deep, skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize

Skin Deep

by BOB DYLAN

An average guy, leading an average life.He tried his very best, to always do
whats right.Was he lookin' for something to do?Did he have something to
say...Or was he just trying - to run away?Reality.....is only skin
deep.He tried so hard not to act like a white sheep.He wonders why
everybody thinks he seems so strange...well it really doesn't matter when
reality is only skin deep.An accident, changed the course of his
life.His whole world had changed, in a single night.He tried his best
to hide his face from the worldHe tried to get away from it all.But
nobody seemed to care about him -Nobody cared at all.Reality.....is
only skin deep.He tried so hard not to act like a white sheep.He
wonders why everybody thinks he seems so strange...well it really doesn't
matter when reality is only skin deep.Right from the start his way of
life was doomed.Kept his single life, locked in his single room.Well
nobody ever knew about it...They never knew there was something
wrong.His plastic world, could never last too long...Reality.....is
only skin deep.He tried so hard not to act like a white sheep.He
wonders why everybody thinks he seems so strange...well it really doesn't
matter when reality is only skin deep.I said it really doesn't matter when
reality is only skin deep.No it really doesn't matter when reality is only
skin deep.

Skin Deep

by Neil Young

Sometimes I feel lost
In a sea of insecurity
That rages inside of me
So terribly caught
And the waves of self-rejection
Make me question my ability

But there's a fire that always burns
And there's a voice inside
And all it wants is to be heard

'Cause beyond skin deep
There's so much more to see
My hopes, my dreams designed with destiny
I was fashioned with passion
A burning desire to know the One who made me more
He made me more than skin deep
'Cause I am more, I am more than skin deep
So much more

It's so hard to change
When we are captive to ourselves
Always thirsty for something else
But free or enslaved
We are sons, we are daughters
Called out by the Father's name

So take the fire and let it burn
Unleash the voice inside
'Cause everyone needs to be heard

Beyond skin deep
There's so much more to see
Our hopes, our dreams designed with destiny
We were fashioned with passion
A burning desire to know the One who made us more
He made us more than skin deep
'Cause we are more, we are more than skin deep
So much more

We are more than the future
We are more than the past
We were made to bring glory
Given souls that will last
We are more than our bodies
We are more than the grave
We were bought by His blood
And from ourselves we've been saved

Skin Deep

by New Kids on the Block

Your tellin' me that I'm your queen
That nothing matches me
You're makin' me feel like a dream
The way you flatter me
Are you just another fake
Or something special?
(Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah)

You're tellin' me that I'm too cool
You say I'm beautiful
I got to tell you I'm no fool
I'm kinda cynical
Boy, have you got what it takes?
Something special
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Don't think this love is
