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
y 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
an' it never seemed strange
but 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
an' holds me in its spell
ev'rything
runs by me
just like water from a well
ev'rybody wants my
attention
ev'rybody's got somethin' to sell
'cept you, yeah
you
