Exactly Like You
Embracing Ideal Love: Exactly Like You by Gene Ammons
Lyrics
I used to have a perfect sweetheart
I used to have an idealized romantic partner
Not a real one, just a dream
This person was not real, just a figment of imagination
A wonderful vision of us as a team
A beautiful vision of us being a united team
Can you imagine how I feel now
Can you imagine the emotional impact I'm experiencing now?
Love is real now, it's ideal
Love is now real and ideal
You're just what I wanted
You are exactly what I desired
And now it's nice to live
Life is now pleasant
Paradise to live
Living with you feels like paradise
I know why I've waited
I understand the reason for my patience
Know why I've been blue
I know why I felt sad
Prayed each night for someone
I prayed for a companion every night
Exactly like you
That companion is someone exactly like you
Why should we spend money
Why spend money on entertainment?
On a show or two
No one can portray love scenes like we do
No one does those love scenes
No need for external shows, as our love is unique
Exactly like you
Just like the way you are
You make me feel so grand
You make me feel wonderful
I want to hand the world to you
I want to give everything to you
I hope you'll understand
I hope you comprehend my intentions
Each foolish little scheme I'm schemin'
Every seemingly foolish plan I have
And dream I'm dreamin'
Every dream I'm envisioning
Now I know why mother
Now I understand why my mother taught me to be honest and faithful
Taught me to be true
She intended me to find someone exactly like you
She meant me for someone
My mother's guidance was for a partner identical to you
Exactly like you
You are the person my mother had in mind
