Someone Like You
Why can’t someone
Touch my life like you
Why can’t I find someone to hold who acts like you do?
Someone like you, who makes me feel like life is all right.
Why can’t I find someone with your smile that makes me smile
Could you help me find someone with passion in her soul like yours?
Someone who cares, like you who loves that part that we share.
Will you help me find someone to love.
When you’re near me
I can smell your hair
Sometimes I look—you see me look, and then I turn away.
Please don’t worry, even friends can feel at times like more than friends.
And when I get home, you still remain—it seems like you’re there.
Pictures given, scented candles, all surround me still.
Then I miss you, really miss you then.
I can’t touch you
Dreams are all I have
Please don’t be mad, it’s in my mind, you lying so near.
I see your eyes, I touch your face, I know it can’t be.
We’re so different, but still we find those diff’rences we love.
Please remind me why we can’t be more than friends.
Someone like you, that’s who I want
And so I ask now
Would you mind if I asked you
Not to be my friend
Cause I don’t want someone like you
I want you.
