Nobody 'Cept You

Nothin' 'round here to me that's sacred

'Cept you, yeah you

Nothin' 'round here to me that matters

'Cept you, yeah you

You're the one that reaches me

You're the one that I admire

Every time we meet together

I feel like I'm on fire

Nothin' matters to me

And there's nothin' I desire

'Cept you, yeah you

Nothin' 'round here I care to try for

'Cept you, yeah you

Got nothin' here to live or die for

'Cept you, yeah you

As a kid I'd hear it

Yes, in church all the time

Make me feel so good inside

So peaceful, so sublime

Now nothin' does remind me

Of that old familiar chime

'Cept you, yeah you

Used to run in the cemetery

Dance and run and sing when I was a child

And it never seemed strange

Now I just pass mournfully

By that place where the bones of life are piled

I know somethin' has changed

I'm a stranger here and no one sees me

'Cept you, yeah you

Nothin' anymore seems to please me

'Cept you, yeah you

Your love hypnotizes me

And holds me in its spell

Everything runs by me

Just like water from a well

Everybody want my attention

Everybody's got somethin' to sell

'Cept you, yeah you

I'm in love with you

I'm in love with you
