Testo Except You

Thought I had you in the palm of my hand 'Cause you said I was your loving man Thought I was the king of the world 'Cause you told me you'd be my girl But that was a long time ago When in winter the grass was green Nothing seem the way it seem Except you, except you Thought I was ahead of my time Love was all I had on my mind But that was a long time ago When at night I saw the sun Nothing and, oh, nothing Except you, except you, babe You have dreams and schemes But life was a burning cinder All I needed was you, out of sight And I can tell her, ooh Look at all the things that I own A house, a car, a paid up loan Flowers blooming in my yard And I knew it wouldn't be so hard But that was a long time ago When the rain was so fresh and clear All I wanted was right here Except you, babe Except you, except you, babe Ooh, except you, ooh, babe
