Verse 1
The texture of your hair
The softness of your skin
The color of your eyes
Where do I begin?
Can’t compare
Can’t compare

Verse 2
The sweetness of your smile
The joy that’s in your laugh
The beauty of your face
Is too much by half
Can’t compare
Can’t compare

Chorus
I used to be lost but now I’m found
I used to be square, but now I’m round
I used to be bad, but now I’m good
If you asked me to dance, I surely would

Verse 3
The kindness in your touch
The fire in your kiss
The way you make me feel
Is more than this world gives
Can’t compare
Can’t compare

Final Chorus
I used to be lost but now I’m found
I used to be quiet, but now I’m sound
I used to be blind, but now I see
The love in your heart has rescued me

Verse 1
The texture of your hair
The softness of your skin
The color of your eyes
Where do I begin?
Can’t compare
Can’t compare

I used to be lost but now I’m found
I used to be square, but now I’m round
I used to be bad, but now I’m good
If you asked me to dance, I surely would

Chorus
I used to be lost but now I’m found
I used to be square, but now I’m round
I used to be bad, but now I’m good
If you asked me to dance, I surely would

Can’t compare
Nothing else
Can’t compare

My humble tribute to Sixto Rodriguez aka Sugar Man ! 

Thank you Rod for the inspiration !

A passionate fan of yours from NEPAL - Bhushan

CAUSE - By Rodriguez

Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer 
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business 
While the rain drank champagne
My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted 
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
Neon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed
Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners 
and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone 
And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving 
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson
Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues 
And I explained that I had overpaid them 
So overdued I went to the company store
and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded 
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun 
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?

'Cause' Sixto Rodriguez
