Someone Like You Lyrics

Others have touched me soft in the night
And others have kissed me and held me tight
Good times and lovers I've had a few
But I was just waiting for someone like you.
Others have loved me before your time
Some who were gentle, some who were kind
Don't it seem funny I never knew
I was just waiting for someone like you.
No, I never wasted a minute of my time
'Cause every road I ever took led me to your side
I've been lonely and I have been loved
I got used to losin' what I'm fondest of.
But it's all so clear now my whole life through
I was just waiting for 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.
