If there is someone lovelier than you
Then I am blind, a man without a mind
If there is someone lovelier than you
 
But no, I am not blind
My eyes have travelled everywhere
In hope that I might find 
A creature half so rare

If there is someone lovelier than you
By all that's beautiful
Such beauty can't be true
 
(Instrumental Break) 
 
But no, I am not blind
My eyes have travelled everywhere
In hope that I might find 
A creature half so fair

If there is someone lovelier than you
By all that's beautiful
Such beauty can't be true
