THE LIKES OF YOU

 

Oh I do get weary, watching this old world go by

I see the same old faces, same old places, same old wonder why

Good times and teardrops, round and round they go

Hand in hand just 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, I've cried a little

I've been mistreated too

I've seen the sun go down in flames

And I've watched the world turn blue

Oh but I ain't never, never ever, seen the likes of you

 

And I want to be drowning in those big brown eyes

And listening to your sweetest lies

I want to sink right down without a single trace

I want to die right here in your embrace

​

Maybe one time in a lifetime
A wish... or a dream may come true
Hey but I ain't never, never ever, seen the likes of you
No Honey I ain't never, in my wildest dreams, seen the likes of you 

No Honey I ain't never, in my wildest dreams, seen the likes of you
