Daryl Hall & John Oates - The Ballads Collection

Someone Like You

Only you could ever know
How hard it was for me to let you go
Hard to face all those nights
And suffer through, all the fools advice
It seems to me it's not so bad
To try for the kind of love that we had
Oh, I need that romance
One that grows strong
When it's got no chance

Now you're gone away
And I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up to comparison
And if I can't have the real thing
Then I've got to find someone
Just like you

I hope someone will come today
Somebody like you
Someone to take me all the way
Someone like you
Someone to take your place
Somebody like you
Someone to fill this empty space

What you got, is what you need
There's pain in that, but it's plain enough to see
Oh, I know I was satisfied
But nobody else came out on my side, oh

But now you're gone away
And I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up to comparison
And if I can't have the real thing
Then I've got to find someone
Just like you

I hope someone will come today
Somebody like you
Someone to take me all the way
Somebody like you
Someone to take your place
Somebody like you
Someone to fill this empty space
I said I need someone

Now you're gone away, girl
And I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up
Somebody like you (you got the real thing) someone
Somebody like you girl

I hope someone will come today
Somebody like you girl
Someone to take me all the way
Somebody like you girl (somebody's gonna send somebody)
Someone to take your place (somebody's gonna send somebody)
I need somebody like you girl (somebody's gonna send somebody)
Someone to fill this empty space (somebody's gonna send somebody)
(Somebody like you) somebody like you girl

I hope someone will come today, ooh (somebody's gonna send somebody)
Send me down (somebody's gonna send somebody)
Send me down, somebody to love (I want someone to take me over)
Ooh, send me down (somebody's gonna send somebody)
Send me down somebody to love me, someone (I will be there to love you)
Someone to fill this empty space (somebody's gonna send somebody)
I want someone to take me all the way (hope someone will come today)
Take me home
