Everything but You lyrics

You left me a horse from Texas,

A house with installments due,

A letter with lots of X-S

Everything but you.

You left me some beans from Boston,

A bicycle built for two,

A memory to get lost in,

Everything but you.

Each day was so gay and so daring,

I loved every breathtaking minute,

for how could I know I was sharing

a kiss without a future in it.

You left me a dream to room with,

A coffee pot from Peru,

A knife and fork to spoon with,

Everything but you.

You left me a horse from Texas,

A house with installments due,

A letter with lots of X-S

Everything but you.

You left me some beans from Boston,

A bicycle built for two,

A memory to get lost in,

Everything but you.

Each day was so gay and so daring,

I loved every breathtaking minute,

for how could I know I was sharing

a kiss without a future in it.

You left me a dream to room with,

A coffee pot from Peru,

A knife and fork to spoon with,

Everything but you.

Everything but you.

You left me everything, everything but you.
