Someone Like You
Austin Mahone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feels like I'm lost in the ocean just driftin'
Drownin' from the weight of my thoughts
Like I just don't know who I am
Like I just don't know who I want to be in a desperate world

Don't even know what I'm doin' and if I'm goin' down the right road,
It's gonna lead me to my dreams
It's gonna take me to a place I never thought I'd be

I don't wanna be good I just wanna be greatest, wanna be the best that I can be
I just wanna be the best thing then settle for less
Full of places in the world I'd rather see, then never see

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
'Cause you wrap me up in love and I can see outside to change
I can face the world as long as I know that you're next to me

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
Any room that you walk into becomes such a better place
And I can see what I'd be missin' if what I would always need
Someone like you

Feels like I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere
Don't know which direction to run
I pray I choose the right one
'Cause if I do then I'll be one step closer to what I want

And every time I think about what I dream of at night all that I could see is you
Told me that you want me too I just wish that it was true
I could see one day we'll be on top just me and you

'Cause I don't wanna be good I just wanna be greatest, wanna be the best that I can be
I just wanna be the best thing then settle for less
Full of places in the world I'd rather see, then never see

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
'Cause you wrap me up in love and I can see outside to change
I can face the world as long as I know that you're next to me

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
Any room that you walk into becomes such a better place
And I can see what I'd be missin' if what I would always need
Someone like you

Everybody's watchin' every move we make
And everybody's talkin', let them say what they gon' say
'Cause they hatin' on me lying on you, the only thing true is the two of us

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
'Cause you wrap me up in love and I can see outside to change
I can face the world as long as I know that you're next to me

Someone like you uh
Someone like you uh
Any room that you walk into becomes such a better place




And I can see what I'd be missin' if what I would always need
Someone like you
