Somebody Like You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a new wind blowing like I've never known
I'm breathing deeper than I've ever done
And it sure feels good, to finally feel the way I do
[Hook]
And I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
[Verse 2]
And I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made
Now there's just one thing
The only thing I wanna do, mmhm
[Hook]
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
[Chorus]
Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shining down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do
[Verse 2]
I used to run in circles going nowhere fast
I'd take, uh, one step forward and two steps back
Couldn't walk a straight line even if I wanted to
There's a new wind blowing like I've never known
I'm breathing deeper than I've ever done
And it sure feels good, to finally feel the way I do
[Hook]
And I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
[Verse 2]
And I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made
Now there's just one thing
The only thing I wanna do, mmhm
[Hook]
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
[Chorus]
Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shining down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do
[Verse 2]
I used to run in circles going nowhere fast
I'd take, uh, one step forward and two steps back
Couldn't walk a straight line even if I wanted to
[Hook]
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
Whoa! here we go now!
Hey, I wanna love ya baby
[Chorus]
Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shinin' down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
Well, baby there ain't nothing in this world I can't do
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But you're teaching me to be a better man
I don't wanna take this life
For granted like I used to do, no, no
[Hook]
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
I'm ready to love somebody
Love somebody like you, ooh
And I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you, yeah
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
Whoa! here we go now!
Hey, I wanna love ya baby
[Chorus]
Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
Shinin' down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
Well, baby there ain't nothing in this world I can't do
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But you're teaching me to be a better man
I don't wanna take this life
For granted like I used to do, no, no
[Hook]
I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you
I'm ready to love somebody
Love somebody like you, ooh
And I wanna love somebody
Love somebody like you, yeah
[Break]
Oh yeah
Hey, I wanna love ya baby
Oh, oh, yeah
[Guitar Solo + Banjo Solo]
[Outro]
Oh, I wanna be the man in the middle of the night
Shining like its true
I wanna be the man that you run to whenever I call on you
When everything that loved someone finally found its way
Wanna be a better man
I see it in you yeah
Hey, I wanna be that
Oh yeah
Hey, I wanna love ya baby
Oh, oh, yeah
[Guitar Solo + Banjo Solo]
[Outro]
Oh, I wanna be the man in the middle of the night
Shining like its true
I wanna be the man that you run to whenever I call on you
When everything that loved someone finally found its way
Wanna be a better man
I see it in you yeah
Hey, I wanna be that
