Someone Like You Lyrics

from "You Can't Fight Fashion", 1983, EMI-America Records Group 


Vanished
   before your eyes
and he took all
   your dreams alive
Last stops and all night rides
   to that place
      where all the lonely hide...

(CHORUS:)
Stop running your heart around
don't let it all get you down...
Don't you know it's so easy--it's so easy
if you're lookin' for a place to run
   well, I'm waiting--I'm waiting
      I'm waiting to be the one...
   
   I ain't no winner--
   I'm no 'miracle-come-true'
   but I've waited so long now, baby--
      for someone like you...

Someone like you, like you, like you--
--all my life, oh, it's true now, baby...

Wanting
   what you can't have
Praying
   for what you need
And when you cry out in the night
   not knowing what to do
Who's the one--that
      shows up to pull you through?

(CHORUS TWICE)
