Someone to love
Drugdealer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And you found you don't want a man
Who's gonna do what they wanna do
And tell you that you can't
And you know
That you can never be lonely
Or you can feel what you gonna feel
And that could never be wrong
Oh, find someone to love
Somebody who gonna hold you when it's wrong
And make it right
And I'm tryna be the one
You know I'm gonna love you anyways
And it's alright

And I don't wanna be the kind of man
Who's tryna see what you're gonna do
And if you're gonna be true
'Cause I know
That I'll be loving you always
I wanna do what you wanna do
Right on time

Oh, find someone to love
Somebody who gonna hold you when it's wrong
And make it right
And I'm tryna be that one




You know I'm gonna love you anyways
And it's alright

Still sad that Bill stopped making new albums after "Watching Me, Watching You" album. One of his underrated stuff. At least I'm glad that sound like this still alive 😁
