Nothing Like You

Nothing Like You
 Shawn Colvin/John Leventhal
 Four blocks up and two streets down,
 I went back to my old hometown
 Like a kid I ran and hid on cue
 That's when times were really sad
 Winter there was really bad
 And we all just froze but for a chosen few
 Did you ever see someone you knew
 Holding fast and staying strong and true
 And they were nothing like you?
 Truth to tell and time to burn
 I hit the wall at every turn
 The ceiling cracked in half and I just flew
 Poetry is what I heard
 I was hanging onto every word
 I was a lover for the world to woo
 I have seen the top of Mt. Ventoux
 I have seen a miracle or two
 And they're N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U
 You've been waiting for awhile
 I can tell
 Off my head and on the fence
 Maybe there's no accidents
 Anyway I'd say I have come to
 So fool me once that might be fun
 Fool me twice well that's been done
 You can fool me everyday I won't say boo
 I believe I have pulled a major coup
 I believe I have boarded up the zoo
 I believe I have dropped the other shoe
 And there's N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U
