Nobody ’cept You
Nothing 'round here to me that's sacred
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing 'round here to me that matters
'Cept you, yeah you
You're the one that reaches me
You're the one that I admire
Why every time we meet together
I feel like I'm on fire
Nothin' matters to me
And there's nothing I desire
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing 'round here I care to try for
'Cept you, yeah you
Got nothing 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 nothing 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
An' it never seemed strange
But now I just pass mournfully by
That place where the bones of life are piled
I know something has changed
'Cos I'm a stranger here and no one sees me
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing anymore seems to please me
'Cept you, yeah you
Your love hypnotises me
An' holds me in it's spell
Everything runs by me
Just like water from a well
Everybody wants my attention
Everybody's got something to sell
'Cept you, yeah you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
