I love this line from "I Wanna Be With You" (river Outtake, Tracks). There is a similar line in Rosalita "You aint a beauty, but hey your alright".

I think it is a great compliment and statement of affection. I susspect the some women might not get it the same way.

He is admitting that he, like most me, is shallow sex obsessed pig, but that his attraction to you is different and true and real.

I just can't understand it, you're not pretty at all
But I come when you whisper, I run when you call
When I see you on the street I fall on my face
I drop to my knees, I plead my case
Oh, oh I wanna be with you


Also, it remindes me of Dylans "I Want You".

It's Thunder Road - "Show a little faith, there's magic in the night"
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
Oh and that's alright with me"

Considering how many times we've all sung along with those lines, we'll put this down as a senior moment (I've had a few, too). wink
