Bridget Jones' Diary Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For someone exactly like you
I've been travelling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through
Someone like you, you make it all worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you, you make it all worth while
Someone like you, keep me satisfied
Just like you, baby
I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different drum
But just lately I have realized
Baby, the best is yet to come
Someone like you, you make it all worth while
Someone like you, keep me satisfied
Someone like you, you make it all worth while
Someone like you, keep me satisfied
Just like you, someone exactly like you
Someone
like you
The singer of the song is expressing his search for someone who is exactly like the person he is addressing in the song.
