There's no thing 'round he re to me that's sa cred
'Cept y ou, yeah y ou
There's nothi ng 'round h ere to me that mat ters
'Cept you, yeah you
Yo u're the one that reaches me
You're the o ne that I admire
Ev ery time we meet together
I fe el like I'm on fire
Not hing matters to me
And there's n othing I de sire
'Cept y ou, yeah y ou
Nothing 'round here I care to try for, 'cept you, yeah you
Got nothing here to live or die for, except you, yeah you
There's a hymn I used to hear
In the churches all the time
Make me feel so good inside
So peaceful, so sublime
And there's nothing that reminds me of that
Old familiar chime, except you, yeah you
U sed to run in the cemetery
Dance and run and sing but I was a ch ild
And it never seemed str ange
But n ow I just pass mournfully
By that place where bones of life are p iled
I know somethin'has cha nged
I'm a stranger here and no one sees me, except you, yeah you
Nothing any more seems to please me,except you, yeah you
Nothing hypnotizes me
Or holds me in a spell
Everything runs by me
Just like water from a well
Everybody wants my attention
Everybody's got something to sell
Except y ou, yeah you
I'm in love with y ou !
