Someone Like You
S.E.K.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the summer and in the night
Babe, the summer and the moonlight
Me and you when it can be
Up the river or down stream
Babe, the ocean and the sea
Oh there you go again
Cracking into another bottle of red
You got something on your mind
There’s another glass of cheap wine
Babe, never met someone like you
Oh babe why can’t you see
You’re everything I want you to be
Babe, don’t change anything for me
Why are you so insecure
Cos I’m so glad you ended up on my lure
Babe, don’t change anything for me
Oh there you go again
Cracking into another bottle of red
Babe, never met someone like you
You got something on your mind
There’s another glass of cheap wine
Babe, never met someone like you
Oh there you go again
Cracking into another bottle of red
Babe, never met someone like you
You got something on your mind
There’s another glass of cheap wine
Babe, never met someone like you
Never met someone like you...
