Someone You Loved
Lewis Capaldi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to save me
This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy
I need somebody to heal
Somebody to know
Somebody to have
Somebody to hold
It's easy to say
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you numbed all the pain

Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving got me sleeping without you
Now, I need somebody to know
Somebody to heal
Somebody to have
Just to know how it feels
It's easy to say but it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you helped me escape

Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I'll be safe in your sound 'til I come back around

For now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

But now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

I let my guard down




And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

Lyrics

I'm going under and this time
I fear there's no one to save me
This all or nothing really got a way
Of driving me crazy

I need somebody to heal, somebody to know
Somebody to have, somebody to hold
It's easy to say, but it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked
The way you numbed all the pain

Now the day bleeds into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all

I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used
To being someone you loved

I'm going under and this time
I fear there's no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving
Got me sleeping without you

Now, I need somebody to know, somebody to heal
Somebody to have, just to know how it feels
It's easy to say, but it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked
The way you helped me escape

Now the day bleeds into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used
To being someone you loved

And I tend to close my eyes
When it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I'll be safe in your sound
till I come back around

For now the day bleeds into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used
To being someone you loved

But now the day bleeds into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used
To being someone you loved

I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used
To being someone you loved

This is for my girlfriend
Now my heart bleeds into nothin
So sheโ€™s not here to see me through it
I let your heart down
So please donโ€™t pull rug
I was getting used to being someone you loved
I let ya heart
Give me a another chance
I was getting kinda use to being someone you loved

Oh god. My cat died around 2 months ago. I couldn't get this song out of my head. It was a great way to get my feelings out. I'd sing this song to myself every time I walked home. It made me cry like crazy but I didn't care. Haters gonna hate, lovers gonna cry. The lyrics that really got me to cry was
"Now the day bleeds, its the night fall, and your not here to get me through it all."

Rest in peace Carter.
