Exactly Like You Lyrics

Track nr. 10 from the 1970
Written by Dorothy Fields & Jimmy Mchugh - arr. Doris Troy

I know why I've waited
I know why I've been blue
I prayed each night for someone
Exactly like you
Now I know why mother
She taught me to be true
She meant me for someone
Exactly like you

You make me feel so grand
I want to hand the world to you
You just make me understand
Each dream I'm dreaming
Every scheme I'm scheming
I know why I've waited
And I know why I've been blue
I've been waiting, I've been waiting
I've been waiting for somebody
Just like you

You make me feel so grand
I want to hand the world to you
You just make me understand
Every scheme I'm scheming
And every dream I'm dreaming
I know why I've waited
And right now I know why I've been blue
I've been waiting, I've been waiting
I've been waiting for somebody
Somebody just like you

I've been waiting for you baby
Every day of my life
That's why I've been blue
My mama told me
She told me I'll find somebody
Somebody like you
