Something About You
Correatown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How
How can it be
That a love carved out of caring
fashioned by fate
could suffer so hard
from the games played once too often
But making mistakes
is a part of life's imperfections
born of the years is it so wrong
to be human after all

Drawn into the stream

of undefined illusion
those diamond dreams
tThey can't disguise the truth

That there is something about you
baby, so right
I wouldn't be without you
baby, tonight

If ever our love
was concealed
no one can say that
we didn't feel
a million things
and a perfect dream of life
Gone
fragile but free
we remain tender together

if not so in love
it's not so wrong
we're only human after all

These changing years
they add to your confusion
oh and you need to hear
the time that told the truth

That there is something about you
baby, so right
Don't want to be without you
baby, tonight
Because there's something about you
baby so right
I couldn't live without you
baby, tonight

Because there's something about you
Baby, so right




I wouldn't be without you
Baby, tonight

My favorite L42 song, you did an amazing job! I happened to be watching Grey's Anatomy on Thursday (3/20/2014) and they had your version playing in the background. I immediately jumped up and squealed! Thank you so much! Die hard L42 fan here! Again, well done!
