ARETHA FRANKLIN - Exactly Like You lyrics

rate me

I used to have a perfect sweetheart<br />

Not a real one, just a dream<br />

A wonderful vision of us as a team<br />

Can you imagine how I feel now?<br />

<br />

Love is real now, it's ideal<br />

You're just what I wanted<br />

And now it's nice to live<br />

Paradise to live<br />

<br />

I know why I've waited<br />

Know why I've been blue<br />

Prayed each night for someone<br />

Exactly like you<br />

<br />

Why should we spend money<br />

On a show or two?<br />

No one does those love scenes<br />

Exactly like you<br />

<br />

You make me feel so grand<br />

I want to hand the world to you<br />

I hope you'll understand<br />

Each foolish little scheme I'm schemin'<br />

And dream I'm dreamin'<br />

<br />

Now I know why<br />

Mother taught me to be true<br />

She meant me for someone<br />

Exactly like you
