Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, darling
I wanted to be everything to you
You are everything
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You are everything
[Verse 1]
Today, I saw somebody who looked just like you
He walked like you do, I thought it was you
As he turned the corner, I called out your name
I felt so ashamed when it wasn't you, wasn't you
[Chorus]
You are everything
You are everything
And everything is you
Oh, you are everything
And everything is you
Oh, you are everything
And everything is you
[Verse 2]
Oh-oh, babe
How can I forget when each face that I see
Brings back memories of being with you?
Oh, darling, I just can't go on living life as I do
Comparing each girl with you, knowing they just won't do
They're not you, no, no, baby
[Chorus]
You are everything
Oh, you are everything
And everything is you
Oh, you are everything
Ooh-oh, you are everything
And everything is you
Oh, you are everything
And everything is you
[Bridge]
Everything, honey, everything, everything, baby
You are, you are everything
Ooh-ooh, you are everything
Honey, everything is you
Woman, you, you are everything in life to me
Oh-oh, boy, you are every, everything
Everything, darling, everything is you
Ooh-ooh, you are everything
Baby, you, you are everything, everything, woman
Whoa-oh-oh-ooh, you are, you are everything
Oh, baby, everything, ooh-ooh
You are everything, and everything is you
[Outro]
You are everything, and everything is you
