Nina Simone - Exactly Like You lyrics

Dorothy fields, jimmy machugh

I know why I waited

Know why I've been blue

I've been waiting each day

For someone exactly like you

Why should I spend some money

On a show or two

When nobody sings these love songs

Exactly like you

You make me feel so grand

I wanna give this world to you

You make me understand

These foolish little dreams I'm dreaming

And schemes I'm scheming

Now I know why my mama

She taught me to be true

She knew just around the corner

Was somebody like you

You make me feel so grand

I wanna give this world to you

Baby you make me understand

These foolish little dreams I'm dreaming

And schemes I'm scheming

Now I know why my mama

She taught me to be true

She knew just around the corner

Yes she knew just around the corner

Was somebody like you
