Nothing Takes The Place Of You

(Toussaint McCall, Alan Robinson)

I moved your picture

From my walls

And I replaced them

Both large and small

And each new day

Finds me so blue

Nothing

Takes the place of you

I read your letters one by one

And I still love you

When it's all said and done

And oh, my darling, I'm so blue

Because nothing

Oh nothing

Takes the place of you

I, I write this letter

It's raining on my window pane

I, I feel the need of you

Because without you

Nothing seems the same

So I'll wait

Until you're home

Again I love you

But I'm all alone

And oh my darling

I'm so blue

Because nothing

Oh, but nothing takes the place of you
