Someone Like You
Sergei Lazarev Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't sleep tonight
Something isn't right
And I'm feeling all alone
And my heart wants you to know
Something in your touch
Poisons me so much
The habit I can't break
I just can't stay away

You're the right place
You're the right time
You're the only one on my mind

Someone like you can take my heart
And leave me broken on the floor
Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun
Someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun

What you give to me
I just can't believe
It's driving me insane
And I lose myself again

You're the right place
You're the right time
You're the only one on my mind

Someone like you can take my heart
And leave me broken on the floor
Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun
Someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun

Something in your touch
Possesses me
It sets me free
Poisons me so much
I can't escape
Can't get away

Someone like you can take my heart
And leave me broken on the floor
Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun
Someone like you
Someone like you




Someone like you can make me feel
Higher than the sun

Опубликовано видео в 2009 г. капец! Почему раньше оно мне не попадалось? Трек нереально крутой! Безумно понравилась песня, а особенно припев!

edi sakhnovich

У него на английском все песни были крутые!
Не то, что это всё, что он сейчас поёт.
Помню как я тащился от этой песни, когда впервые услышал ее в далеком 2006 году...когда у меня появился его первый сольник, который напичкан хитами

Татьяна Татьяна

До чего же он хорош! Как? Как я могла не слушать его раньше?! Если бы не EU2016, я бы и не услышала этих песен. Спасибо за видео.

Саша Лазарев

Да, он лучшим был и остается.
