Someone Like You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Vanished
before your eyes
and he took all
your dreams alive
Last stops and all night rides
to that place
where all the lonely hide...
Stop running your heart around (oh, yeah)
Don't let it all drag you down...
Don't you know it's so easy
If you're lookin' for a place to run (oh whoa)
well, I'm willing, I'm willing
I'm willing to be the one...
I ain't no winner
I'm no 'miracle-come-true'
But I've waited so long now, baby
For someone like you...
Oh, someone like you, like you, like you
all my life, oh, it's true now, baby...
Wanting
what you can't have
Praying
for what you need
And when you cry out in the night
not knowing what to do
Who's the one that
shows up to pull you through?
Stop running your heart around (oh yeah)
Don't let it all get you down...
Don't you know it's so easy
If you're lookin' for a place to run (oh whoa)
well, I'm willing--I'm willing
I'm willing to be the one...
I ain't no winner
I'm no 'miracle-come-true'
But I've waited so long now, baby
for someone like you...
Oh, someone like you, like you, like you
Oh you know it's true now, baby...oh
Someone like you know baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone like you now baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone just like you now
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone like you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Stop running your heart around (oh yeah)
Don't let it all get you down...
Don't you know it's so easy
If you're lookin' for a place to run (oh whoa)
well, I'm willing--I'm willing
I'm willing to be the one...
I ain't no winner
I'm no 'miracle-come-true'
but I've waited so long now, baby
for someone like you...
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone like you now girl
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone like you
Oh, oh, oh, oh someone like you now baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
