Someone like you

Verse 1

I’ve always been that kind
Saying all that sounded right
Always good at keeping it light
Even laughing at the wrong time
It’s all about to move along
Hiding pieces I can’t show
But when you look, it feels like home
And somehow, you already know

Pre-Chorus

I don’t need fixing
And I don’t need a plan
I really need somebody
Who sees me as I am
(Oh, as I am)

Chorus

I really need someone like you
Someone who sees me like you do
And sees the words I hide behind
Someone who reads between the lines
And you do
(You do, you do, you do)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, you do
(You do, you do, you do)
I really need someone like you

Verse 2

I’ve been walking through the quiet
Trying not to make a sound
Laughing just to fill the spaces
Where no one else is around
But when you’re here, it feels so easy
Like I don’t have to hide
You see the things I never say
And you stay there by my side

Pre-Chorus

I never needed fixing
Never needed a plan
But I really need somebody
Who sees me as I am
(Oh, as I am)

Chorus

I really need someone like you
Someone who sees me like you do
And sees the words I hide behind
Someone who reads between the lines
And you do
(You do, you do, you do)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, you do
(You do, you do, you do)
I really need someone like you

Bridge

If I fall quiet, you don’t turn away
If I get lost, you just always stay
You hear the words I never speak
And love the parts I try to keep
I’ve been looking for so long
I really need someone
(Someone, someone)

Final Chorus

I really need someone like you
Someone who sees me like you do
And sees the words I hide behind
Someone who reads between the lines
And you do
(You do, you do, you do)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, you do
(You do, you do, you do)
I really need someone like you
(Like you)
Like you
Yeah, I really need someone like…
You

[Outro soft, intimate]

I really need someone like you
Someone who sees me like you do
And sees the words I hide behind
Someone who reads between the lines
And you do
(You do, you do, you do)
(Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, you do
(You do, you do, you do)
I really need someone like you
