Lyrics
You left me a horse from Texas
A house with installments due
A letter with lots of ex'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 a fork to spoon with
Everything but you
You left me a horse from Texas
A house with installments due
A letter with lots of ex'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 a fork to spoon with
Everything but you
Everything but you
You left me everything, everything but you
Writer(s): Don George, Duke Ellington, Harry James
