Some People
Howard Carpendale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some people they tease one another
Take pride in themselves keeping the other one down
Well I'm not like that all

Some people they hurt one another
They love to see hurt in the other one's eyes
Well I'm not like that all
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one's hand
They always unterstand
Some people cry some people know why

Some people they use one another
So aimlessly not like lovers do
Well I'm not like that all

Some people they long for each other
They love to walk holding the other one's hand
They always unterstand
Some people cry some people know why

With a word unspoken with a voice unheard
When a thought ist broken by a tender word
When a heart is moved when a heart is thrown
The silence tells you vor're not alone

Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one's hand
They always unterstand
Some people cry some people know why

Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one

Some people are born for each other




They love to walk holding the other one
Holding the other one, holding the other one
