Everything But You

Harry James, Duke Ellington, Don George

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
