Like You
Far&High Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lately I've been so down that its been hurting
You up and left me with no warning
And now you know that I'm still falling
Lately I hope you know it ain't been easy
I've been thinking about you daily
I've been wondering if I'm crazy,
For you, for you
For you, for you

All I ever wanted was somebody like you
All I ever needed was somebody like you

All I ever wanted was somebody like you
All I ever needed was somebody, somebody like you
