Someone Like You Lyrics

Girl, I had got to thinking
you're my only tragedy.
I"m haunted by your face.
Girl, I won't leave you lonely
my hearat beats for you only
at night I call your name.
All of my life
I've been searching for the words that make me fit in right
with someone like you.

Boy, I reached out to no one
but inside I knew that someone
would see just who I am.
All of my life
I've been searching for the words that me fit in right
with someone like you.

I'm not what I seem
whatever that may be.
I'll leave you waiting

Girl, I don't want to bother
but my heart is sinking farther
down to where you are.

Boy, I just think you're crazy
what would you do if if maybe
you had a girl like me

All of my life
I've been searching for the words that make me fit in right
with someone like you.
All of my dreams are tearing at the seams.
I want to but I fight it all with someone like you.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The second verse here was missing a few lines, it should read:

Boy, I've seen that you've been waiting Every night I'm faking Just to make you think I've come. Boy, I reached out to no one but inside I knew that someone would see just who I am. All of my life I've been searching for the words that me fit in right with someone like you.

I think that's the most interesting part of this song, anyway. It puts a spin on what is a mostly straightforward love song. :D
