They don't make them like you anymore, that's for sure 
And when they made you 
They made sure they threw away the mould 
It comes as no surprise to me 
That I wanna be in your vicinity

If I stand close to you, I'm not sure if I'm really there 
With my feet on the ground but my head's lost in the air 
Oh, how I wish you could see 
That I'd love to be in your vicinity

Where would I go, what would I do 
If you should run from me? 
How does it show when you're to lose 
Will you explain to me? 
There's something growing 
There's something showing 
There's something won't let me be

Where would I go, what would I do 
If you should run from me? 
How does it show when you're to lose 
Will you explain to me? 
There's something growing 
There's something showing 
There's something won't let me be

They don't make them like you anymore, that's for sure 
And when they made you 
They made sure they threw away the mould 
Oh, how I wish you could be 
I wanna be in your vicinity

Well, I've heard that one day 
Everything comes to him who waits 
Well, that may be so, but you know it might be too late
Oh, how I'd love to see 
That I wanna be in your vicinity
