Nobody 'Cept You lyrics

There's nothing 'round here that I believe in

'cept you, yeah you.

And there's nothing to me that's sacred,

'cept you, yeah you.

You're the one that reaches me.

You're the one that I admire.

Every time we meet together

my soul feels like it's on fire.

Nothing matters to me

and there's nothing I desire

'cept you, yeah you.

There's nothing 'round here I care to try for

'cept you, yeah you.

I've got nothing left to live or die for

'cept you, yeah you.

There's a hymn I used to hear

in the churches all the time.

Made me feel so good inside,

so peaceful, so sublime.

And there's nothing to remind me of that

old familiar chime

'cept you, uh huh you.

I used to play in the cemeteries,

dance, sing and run when I was a child.

It never seemed strange,

but now I just pass mournfully by

the place where the bones of life are piled.

I know something's changed.

I'm a stranger, no one sees me

'cept you, yeah you.

Nothing matters much or even pleases me

'cept you, yeah you.

Nothing hypnotises me

or casts me in a spell.

Everything runs right through me

just like water from a well.

Everybody wants my attention.

Everybody's got something to sell

'cept you, yeah you.

Girl, I'm loving you.
