THE LIKES OF YOU

 

Oh I do get weary, watching the world go by

Same old places, same old faces, same old wonder why

Good times and teardrops, round and round they go

Hand in hand like lovers, can't let each other go

 

Well I've been around that merry-go-round..

More than a time or two

I’ve laughed a little, cried a little

I been mistreated too

I've watched the sun go down in flames

And I've watched the world turn blue

But I aint never, never ever, seen the likes of you

 

And I want to be drowning in those big brown eyes

Listening to the sweetest lies

I want to sink right down without a trace

I want to die right here in your embrace
