"Can't Take My Eyes off You" é um single de 1967 interpretado por Frankie Valli. O tema foi um dos maiores êxitos de Valli, alcançando o segundo lugar na Billboard Hot 100, arrecadando um disco de ouro, apenas suplantado em 1975, quando "My Eyes Adored You" atingiu o primeiro lugar no mesmo chart. A canção teve um enorme impacto cultural, com centenas de covers, muitos dos quais estiveram eles próprios nas paradas, em diferentes países. A canção é um marco e amiúde utilizada nas séries televisivas e "spots" de publicitários de todo o mundo, como também nas trilhas (bandas pt-eu) sonoras de filmes, e mesmo integrando o enredo de alguns filmes, como quando os protagonistas principais cantam ou organizam a sua própria versão.

A NASA fez passar a versão original como canção de despertar, no dia 23 de novembro de 2008, data do 23º aniversário de casamento do astronauta Christopher Ferguson a bordo e comandante da missão STS-126 do space shuttle OV-105 Endeavour. WAV MP3 TRANSCRIPT

You're just too good to be true

can't take my eyes off of you

you'd be like heaven to touch

oh, 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

I can't take my eyes off of you

pardon the way that I stare

there's nothing else to compare

the thought 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

I can't take my eyes off of you

I love you, baby

and if it's quite alright

I need you, baby

to warm a 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 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

oh, 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

I can't take my eyes off of you

I love you, baby

and if it's quite alright

I need you, baby

to warm a 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 found you, stay

and let me love you, baby

let me love you
