Anyone But You (Shad)

Rees Shad

I realized some time ago who was who and why

But I still pray for a change of heart and swim against the tide

She seems to look right through the faces I put on

Clear through, out and over my shoulder, wherever you have gone

 

I could give anything she asked for          I would do whatever I could do

I could find anything she searched for       I could be anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone, Anyone at all but you

 

Its been four years since you were on your way

But she’s still hangs around this town hoping you’ll be coming back someday

And everytime your name’s brought up, she breaks into that smile

How can I gain the trust                 of a heart in exile?

 

I could give anything she asked for          I would do whatever I could do

I could find anything she searched for       I could be anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you

 

You had to ride away triumphant in your sunset

While I can only be a shoulder, or a substitute at best

 

I could give anything she asked for          I would do whatever I could do

I could find anything she searched for       I could be anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you

 

I’m shadow boxing with myself, and I can’t win

Against a man whose buried so deep within

The only woman I hold near, she’s torn apart

By a promise you made long ago, a promise she still takes to heart

 

I could give anything she asked for           I would do whatever I could do

I could find anything she searched for       I could be anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you

Anyone, Anyone at all, Anyone,      Anyone at all but you
