Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Today I saw somebody who looked just like you
She walked like you do, I thought it was you
And as you turned a corner, I called out your name
I felt so ashamed, 'cause it wasn't you
Wasn't you
[Verse 2]
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, everything is you
Oh, you are everything, and everything is you
Oh
[Verse 3]
How can I forget? When each face that I see
Brings back memories of being with you
Oh, baby, I just can't go on living life as I do
Comparing each one with you
'Cause they just fall through
They're not you, no, baby
[Verse 4]
You are everything, and everything is you
Oh, you are everything, baby, and everything is you
Oh, you are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you (Everything, everything)
(Lie to me, baby)
Oh, you are everything, and everything is you (No, love)
Oh, you are everything, and everything is you (Everything, please, baby)
(Everything)
You are everything, and everything is you (You, you are everything)
Oh, you are everything, and everything is you (No)
(Well, baby, I just carry on)
You are everything, and everything is you (Come back)
