Someone like you makes it All worth while Someone like you keeps Me satisfied. Someone exactly Like you. I've been travellin' a hard road Lookin' for someone exactly like you I've been carryin' my heavy load Waiting for the light to come Shining through. Someone like you makes it All worth while Someone like you keeps Me satisfied. Someone exactly Like you. I've been doin' some soul searching To find out where you're at I've been up and down the highway In all kinds of foreign lands Someone like you... etc. I've been all around the world Marching to the beat of a different Drum. But just lately I have Realised The best is yet to come. Someone like you... ************************************ | (n) hold note ************************************
