Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can' t take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God, I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
I love you baby and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely night
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you
You're just too good to be true
Can' t take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God, I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
I love you baby and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely night
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
Oh pretty baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby
The lyrics to Andy Williams's song "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" describe the overwhelming feeling of falling in love. The singer is completely smitten with the person they are singing to and cannot take their eyes off of them. They describe the object of their affection as being too good to be true and compare them to heaven. The singer wants nothing more than to hold and love this person completely.
As the love song progresses, the singer expresses their gratitude that love has finally arrived in their life. They cannot compare anyone or anything to the sight of the one they love, and they feel weak in their presence. They plead with their love interest to let them know that their feelings are reciprocated and that their love is real. The singer then declares their love and need for their love interest, asking them to trust in their feelings and not bring them down. They want their love to stay with them and let them love them.

Sad Andy Willams died on Sept. 25, 2012 at 84 from cancer. And when he sang this song solo in 1967 it was a legend when he was 40 years old.

Denise Van Outen is an amazing performer, so lovely and talented-yes this is cheesy but was such fun to watch and the voices and harmonies were so amazing together!! And I'm now an Andy Williams fan too, another amazing talent.
