Lyric
You look good in anything you choose to wearEven a trace of gray would look good in your hairAnd you look fine in sunshine baby or the shadows of a stormBut you always look your best here in my arms.You look good when you sit and rock our babyYou look great the perfect picture of a ladyAnd you look fine with your smile so angel soft and sunshine warmBut you always look your best here in my arms.We look good walking togetherAnd we feel so good holding each otherI’m depending on your tender love to keep me safe and warmYes, you always look your best here in my arms.I’m depending on your warm and tender love to keep me strongAnd you always look your best here in my arms
