Someone Like You – Voltaire

I was lost. I was shattered
I was lonely. I was blue
In my world full of shadows
Covered in cobwebs
Draped in gloom

And then, something happened
You just came waltzing in
Like a warm summer breeze
And spring bloomed again
And I caught myself smiling
For the first time since I don’t know when

Because of you, because of you
How long I’ve waited for someone like you
Say it’s true, tell me it’s you
All my world needed
To see it through was you

What is this feeling that’s got my heart reeling
I’m scaling the walls and I’m pacing the floor
I know this desire that’s loaded with fire
‘Cause it’s a fire that’s burned me before
And I don’t know if I have the power to try
The last time I did left me battered and bruised
I felt my heart die, I’ve got nothing inside
Well, then I guess I’ve got nothing to lose

I will tear the blinds and let all this light
Wash out the hurt and lies I went through
I will wave goodbye to sobbing in the night
I’m gonna let my life start anew

Because of you, because of you
How long I’ve waited for someone like you
Say it’s true, tell me it’s you
All my world needed
To see it through was you

How long I’ve waited for someone like you
Say it’s true, tell me it’s you
‘Cause you just came waltzing in from out of the blue
Please say, it’s you
