Duke Ellington Lyrics for Song: Everything But You [Dvd]
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Duke Ellington
 
 
 
 707>You left me a horse from Texas,
 
 A house with installments due,
 
 A letter with lots of X-S
 
 Everything but you.
 
 
 
 You left me some beans from Boston,
 
 A bicycle built for two,
 
 A memory to get lost in,
 
 Everything but you.
 
 
 
 Each day was so gay and so daring,
 
 I loved every breathtaking minute,
 
 For how could I know I was sharing
 
 A kiss without a future in it.
 
 
 
 You left me a dream to room with,
 
 A coffee pot from Peru,
 
 A knife and fork to spoon with,
 
 Everything but you.
 
 
 
 You left me a horse from Texas,
 
 A house with installments due,
 
 A letter with lots of X-S
 
 Everything but you.
 
 
 
 You left me some beans from Boston,
 
 A bicycle built for two,
 
 A memory to get lost in,
 
 Everything but you.
 
 
 
 Each day was so gay and so daring,
 
 I loved every breathtaking minute,
 
 For how could I know I was sharing
 
 A kiss without a future in it.
 
 
 
 You left me a dream to room with,
 
 A coffee pot from Peru,
 
 A knife and fork to spoon with,
 
 
 
 Everything but you.
 
 Everything but you.
 
 You left me everything, everything but you.
 
 707>
