Anyone But Me

Carly Simon


Straight from the hall of fame
One of the world's great lovers
Darling you're not to blame
I'm just sorry that you've been discovered
When I look in your eyes
I know hundreds of girls have been there
I try to be civilized
And pretend that I don't care

Take me away, burn out the past
And hold me
To calm my jealousy
Just want you to hold me
Forget your history
I want you to show me
We'll be like Adam and Eve
How much you love me
You lose your memory
I wish you had never loved anyone but me

Breathless and overcome
Knowin' my desire is showing
Passion can make you dumb
But does so much to keep you going
Turn off the songs of the past romance and

Hold me
To calm my jealousy
I want you to hold me
Forget your history
I need you to show me
We'll be like Adam and Eve
How much you love me
You lose your memory
I wish you had never loved anyone but me

With too many options
You spin like a top
You spin like a top until you drop
But now that you've dropped I'm gonna pick you up
And love you until we just can't stop
And love you until we just can't stop

Hold me
I want you to hold me
I need you to show me
We'll be like Adam and Eve
That you really love me
You lose your memory
I wish you had never loved anyone but me
