Lyrics for Exactly Like You

I know why I waited Know why I've been blue I've been praying for someone, baby Exactly like you Why should we spend money, on a show or two When no one does those love scenes, baby Exactly like you? You make me feel so grand I wanna give this world to you You seem to understand Each foolish little dream I'm dreaming And the schemes I'm scheming Now I know why mother taught me to be true She meant me for someone, baby Exactly like you Just like you, baby, oh Just like you Mother meant me for someone exactly like you I know why I waited I know why I been blue I've been waiting for someone, baby Exactly like you Why should we spend money on a show or two When no one does those love scenes, baby Exactly like you? You make me feel so grand I wanna give this world to you You seem to understand Each foolish little dream I'm dreaming And the schemes I'm scheming Now I know why mother taught me to be true She meant me for someone Exactly like you Just like you baby, oh, just like you Mother meant me for someone exactly like you Just like you, baby, pretty just like you Mother meant me for someone exactly like you
