There's nothing around here to me that's sacred 'Cept you, yeah you There's nothing 'round here to me that matters 'Cept you, yeah you
You're the one I'm reaching for You're the one that I admire Every time we meet together I feel like I'm on fire There's nothing that matters to me And there's nothing I desire 'Cept you, yeah you
There's nothing around here I want to try for 'Cept you, yeah you There's nothing at the hideout to live or die for In churches all the time Make me feel so good inside So peaceful, so sublime And there's nothing that reminds 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 And 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 I'm a stranger here and no one sees me 'Cept you, yeah you
There's no one here that wants to see me 'Cept you, yeah you Nothing hypnotizes me Or holds me in its spell Everything runs by me Just like water from a well They all want my attention They all got something to sell 'Cept you, yeah you
