Bob Dylan
Nobody ’Cept You
[Intro]
There’s nothing ’round here to me that's sacred
’Cept you, yeah you
And there’s nothing 'round here to me that matters
’Cept you, yeah you
[Verse 1]
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
Nothing matters to me
And there’s nothing I desire
’Cept you, yeah you
[Verse 2]
Nothing ’round here I care to try for
’Cept you, yeah you
Got nothing 'round here to live or die for
’Cept you, yeah you
[Verse 3]
There’s a hymn I used to hear
In the churches all the time
Make me feel so good inside
So peaceful, so sublime
And there’s nothing that remind me of that
Old familiar chime
’Cept you, yeah you
[Verse 4]
Used to play in the cemetery
Dance and run and sing when I was a child
And it never seemed strange
But now I just pass mournfully by
The places where the bones of life are piled
I know something has changed
Well I’m a stranger here and no one sees me
’Cept you, yeah you
[Verse 5]
Nothing anymore seems to please me
’Cept you, yeah you
And nothing hypnotizes me
Or holds me in a spell
Everything runs by me
Just like water from a well
Everybody wants my attention
Everybody’s got something to sell
Except you, yeah you
Well I'm in love with you
Well I'm in love with you
