Exactly Like You by Aretha Franklin Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 1962

[Verse 1]
I know why I've waited
I know why I've been blue, yeah
'Cause I've been waiting here for somebody, baby
Ah, yeah, exactly like you, uh-huh
Why should we spend all of our money
On a show or two
When nobody makes those love scenes, honey
Ah, exactly like you

[Bridge]
Now you make me feel so grand
I wanna give this world to you
And you make me understand
These foolish little dreams I'm dreaming
And schemes I'm scheming, yeah

[Verse 2]
I know why my daddy
Taught me to be true, yeah
'Cause he was keeping me here for somebody, somebody, somebody
Exactly like you
[Bridge]
Now you make me feel so grand
I wanna hand this great big wide world to you
And you make me understand
That these foolish little dreams I'm dreaming
And oh, schemes I'm scheming, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
I know why my daddy, yeah
The man taught me to be true, uh-huh
'Cause he was saving me here for somebody, somebody, somebody
Exactly like you
Oh, exactly, ah baby
Like you
Exactly like you
Nobody, nobody, nobody but you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Exactly, exactly, exactly, oh, like you
Oh baby
Somebody, somebody like you
