Like You
The Hot lips Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not a real one, just a dream
A wonderful vision of us as a team
Can you imagine how I feel now
Love is real now, it's ideal
You're just what I wanted
And now it's nice to live
Paradise to live
I know why I've waited
Know why I've been blue
Prayed each night for someone
Exactly like you
Why should we spend money
On a show or two
No one does those love scenes
Exactly like you
You make me feel so grand
I want to hand the world to you
I hope you'll understand
Each foolish little scheme I'm schemin'
And dream I'm dreamin'
Now I know why mother
Taught me to be true
She meant me for someone
Exactly like you
The Hot Lips' song "Like You" is a romantic ballad that expresses the joy of finding a true love who meets all expectations. The lyrics tell a story of a person who used to have an ideal partner in their imagination but after finding their true love, they feel like they have finally achieved their dream. The person feels grateful and lucky to have found someone who fits every aspect of their ideal mate.
The lyrics also speak to the idea that true love is hard to find but worth waiting for. The person knows why they waited and why they were feeling blue, but they finally found someone who is exactly like what they had been praying for. They see no need to spend money on entertainment when nothing can compare to the love they share.
The song expresses a deep appreciation for the new love and the feeling of wanting to give the world to that person. The singer admits to having foolish schemes and dreams, but they feel understood and accepted by their love. It ends with the final realization that the singer's mother taught them to be true to themselves because they were meant for someone exactly like their current partner.
