Someone Like Me Lyrics
Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true
Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true
Something's been trying to hold me down
An' leave me no hope on the battleground
I'm knocking on doors, "Come on, let me in"
Desperately craving the feminine
Then you came to me
Genuinely
How could I get lucky like this?
What have I done?
This type of thing's just a fantasy
The story is laid out so wretchedly
Like out of a film or a magazine
Appeal to the classical masculine
But gradually
It's dawning on me
This isn't like a dream
This is for real
Being yourself - what does that mean?
Seeing yourself is the hardest thing
Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true
Timing your movements so accurately
Hearing you breathing so musically
Unity strengthening rapidly
Knowing you'll always come back to me
You're never too close
Or far away
Perfect somewhere in-between
Vintage machine
Seeing it's already time to leave
I got to go out, I need space to breathe
Go before everything's caving in
Understand that, oh my heroine
But someone like you
So hard to believe
Sure this is not just a dream?
Wake up and see
Being yourself is a lonely thing
If you never pick it up and just let it ring
Someone like me
It's what I've always dreamed of
With someone like you
More than satisfactory
How unlikely
It's real you're here beside me
To good to be true
Come on, let's share this moment
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true
An' leave me no hope on the battleground
I'm knocking on doors, "Come on, let me in"
Desperately craving the feminine
Then you came to me
Genuinely
How could I get lucky like this?
What have I done?
The story is laid out so wretchedly
Like out of a film or a magazine
Appeal to the classical masculine
But gradually
It's dawning on me
This isn't like a dream
This is for real
Seeing yourself is the hardest thing

How unlikely
Too good to be true
Hearing you breathing so musically
Unity strengthening rapidly
Knowing you'll always come back to me
You're never too close
Or far away
Perfect somewhere in-between

quite possibly the best song on the understanding. i love it. after the first verse when the beat starts...... its very infectious.....
How can no one have commented?? This song is so great. Love Royksopp.
I don't get it; why do people dislike this album compared to the first one? I've not played this one much because of the fuckbastarding copy control on the cd making my mp3s sound all buggy, but from what I've heard it's just as good as Melody AM...
