about

Except For You starts with a resolution to be lonely with “I was born to roam, I was born to be alone”, that turns into a search for love only realized through grace,
“but something hit me deep inside, nothing could shake me off that ride...Except For You”. The song builds intensity in the outro through key and tempo changes.
Just a lover or some higher power?

lyrics

Verse 1

I was born to roam

I was born to be alone

Something hit me deep inside

Nothing could shake me off that ride


Chorus

Except for you
(Repeat 4 x)

Verse2

Nobody knows the things I've done

Nobody’s been down roads I've run

Once I got down on my knees

Where I found out, nobody rides for free


Chorus

Except for you
(Repeat 4 x)

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

You were the one that brought me down

You put my feet back on the ground

You pulled me out of that murky haze

No one else could show me Grace

Chorus

Except for you
(Repeat)
