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   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   And it never seemed strange      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   And holds me in its spell   Everything runs by me   Just like water from a well      Everybody want my attention   Everybody's got somethin' to sell   'Cept you, yeah you      I'm in love with you   I'm in love with you
