Someone Like You
Christiane Noll Emily Skinner Frank Wildhorn John Treacy Egan Leslie Briscusse Linda Eder & Robert C Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I peered through windows, watched life go by
Dreamed of tomorrow, but stayed inside
The past was holding me, keeping life at bay
I wandered lost in yesterday
Wanting to fly, but scared to try
Then someone like you, found someone like me
And suddenly, nothing is the same
My heart's takenwing
And I feel so alive
Caus' someone like you found me
Its like you took my dreams, made each one real
And reached inside of me, and made me feel
And now I see a world, I've never seen before
Your love has opened every door
You've set me free, now I can soar
For someone like you, found someone like me
You touched my heart, nothing is the same
There's a new way to live, a new way to love
Caus' someone like you found me
Oh
Someone like you, found someone like me
And suddenly, nothing will ever be the same




My heart's taken wing, and I feel so alive
Caus' someone like you loves me, loves me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Someone Like You by Frank Wildhorn, beautifully interpreted by Christiane Noll, Emily Skinner, John Treacy Egan, Leslie Briscusse, Linda Eder and Robert C, speak of a person who is stuck in their past, unable to move forward or embrace the future. They are lost and scared, wanting to fly but too afraid to take the risk. However, everything changes when they meet someone like the person singing the song. Their love has the power to bring the singer out of their shell, restoring hope and opening doors that were once closed. The love they share sets them free and enables them to soar to new heights.


The lyrics highlight how life can change in an instant when the right person comes along. Love has the potential to transform one's entire existence, and the singer of the song is forever changed by meeting the person they sing about. They have a newfound sense of purpose and joy, and they are grateful for the way this person has brought so much light into their life.

LYRICS
I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I begged
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
"Don't forget me, " I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I begged
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"

I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light

[Pre-Chorus]
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over

[Chorus]
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me," I beg
