Isaac Hayes Nothing Takes The Place Of You lyrics

I moved your picture from my walls
And I replaced them both large and small
And each new day finds me so blue
Because nothing, oh, nothing takes the place of you

I read your letters, oh, one by one
And I still love you when it's all said and done
Oh, my darling, oh, my darling, darling, I'm so blue, yeah
Because nothing, oh, nothing takes the place of you

And as I, as I write this letter, oh yeah
It's raining, raining and raining, it's raining on my window pane
And, and I feel the need, oh, the need to see without you
Oh, without you, oh, nothing, nothing, nothing seems the same


So I, I'll wait, I'll wait until you're home
Again I'll love you, right now I'm all alone
Oh, my darling, oh, my darling, I'm so blue
Because nothing, oh, nothing takes the place of you

Nothing can take the place of your warm smile
Nothing can take the place, no, of the look in your eyes
Nothing can take the place, your soft and tender touch
Nothing can take the place of you, so I miss you so much
Nothing can take the place of your arms around me
