nothing takes the place of you

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.
