D.B. Rouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some nights I cry till I end up sleeping
Some days I can't even get out of bed in the morning
And it's torturing me not knowing why
Friends come and go I should be used to that
Dreams feel far away but I'm on the right track
But there's something missing and right now I'm thinking
It's you
It's gotta be you
I don't know what to do
I'll just keep looking for you
You
I'm looking for you
Some nights I'd like to have you beside me
Some nights your heartbeat would be all I need
And some days a duet would be nicer than a one man show
But I don't know just how I will ever find you
People shooting words like they're shooting guns
These bullets they hurt but that's not the problem
I think my issue is that I somehow miss you
And I don't even know your name yet
It's you
It's gotta be you
I don't know what to do
I'll just keep looking for you
You
It's gotta be you
I don't know what to do
I'll just keep looking for you
You
Forcing feelings never works
Believe me I have tried and I have learnt
That nothing will be right
Unless it's you
But this is the hard part
To wait for something that you don't know is coming
If you're out there
Just please come now
Coz I want you
It's gotta be you
I don't know what to do
I'll just keep looking for you
I'm looking for you
It's you
It's gotta be you
I don't know what to do
I'll just keep looking
