Everybody But You

(album: I Love Songs - 2018)

She likes it when my hands are tied (yeah)
She likes it when my blindfolds on (too)
She ain't got nothing to hide (no, no, no)
She just likes to be in control (I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, no, I know
My baby she really don't care about you
She is in a world of her own (I, I, I)
I'm looking for a bright idea, my
Blind faith will leave a light bulb on (cool)
She has got my high hopes up (I, I, I)
I'll be walking tightropes home, soon

Yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah
I know that she's my only one
When I show, when I show, when I show it
I show her love but she don't need none

(I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you (I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you, yeah

Isn't it ironic that like everywhere I go
They give me vodka for my tonic plus some duckets for the show
I keep a picture in a locket in my pocket by my phone
Savin pennies in my wallet just to cop a dozen roses
But when I give 'em to you, you don't want it, I suppose
That you're sick of feeling solace, coming second to the road
And I wish that I could promise that you'll never be alone
But I gotta keep it honest, there ain't nothing set in stone, yeah
And know if it was up to me I'd never leave you home
But you stressing at your J.O.B, so that ain't gonna float
Girl, you're special, you're the goat, I'm just tryna get this cream
Winter jacket for the cold to protect you from the breeze, what it be

Yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah
I know that she's my only one
When I show, when I show, when I show it
I show her love but she don't need none

(I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you (I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you, yeah

She's always gonna get what she wants, I
Always wanted what I can't have, but it's okay
If I never get that, maybe one day
One day she can get me involved, I
I woke from my dream last night, last night
And she was in her birthday suit, yeah yeah
But it wasn't me by her side this time
No, it wasn't me inside her room

Yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah, I know, yeah
I know that she's my only one
When I show, when I show, when I show it
I show her love but she don't need none

(I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you (I, I, I)
I get love wherever I go from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody I know, from
Everybody but you, yeah
