[Intro]
Beautiful thing

[Verse 1]
I guess I don't wear them on my sleeve
The feelings for you I bear
I don't wanna get all sensitive, no
But if you don't know, I care

[Pre-Chorus]
Communication's a strange relation to me
Forgive me, if you can
But the secret
Is that I'm overjoyed inside, you see
And when I pray I tell the Man...

[Chorus]
It never ceases to amaze me
She's all I dream about
Beautiful thing
Conversations never phase me
She's all I talk about
Beautiful thing

[Verse 2]
How could you really ever know, ever know
If I never extend my hand?
I don't wanna make you run away
So I pray you'll understand

[Pre-Chorus]
My hesitation with love relations could be
My only doubt and fear
Then, baby you came
Into my life and now you're all I dream
And once again I'm thanking Him...

[Chorus]
It never ceases to amaze me
She's all I dream about
My beautiful thing
Conversations never phase me
She's all I talk about
My beautiful thing
Every day's a new adventure
So happy that I got
My beautiful thing
From November to November
She's all I wanna shout
Beautiful thing

[Bridge]
Oh, darlin', so beautiful, oh yeah
She's all I dream about...
She's all I talk about...
It never ceases to amaze me...
Conversations never phase me (never phase me...)
Beautiful thing

[Chorus]
It never ceases to amaze me
She's all I dream about
Beautiful thing
Conversations never phase me
She's all I talk about
Beautiful thing
Every day's a new adventure
So happy that I got
My beautiful thing
From November to November
She's all I wanna shout
Beautiful thing

His debut album T.E.V.I.N. was released on November 19, 1991 and features the #1 R&B hits “Tell Me What You Want Me To Do” and “Alone With You,” which helped the album go platinum and earn Tevin a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His next album I’m Ready was released on October 26, 1993 and featured the Babyface-produced hits “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” This album went double platinum and led to three more Grammy nominations for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Can We Talk,” Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “I’m Ready,” and Best R&B Album.

Tevin’s third album Back to the World was released on June 25, 1996 and he followed that up with the release of a self-titled album on February 23, 1999. He appeared in the Broadway musical Hairspray in 2005 and after some guest appearances on various shows throughout the years, he released the song “Safer on the Ground” in 2016.
