I've tried to live my life alone
Independence, freedom was my own
But there was a loneliness I could not ignore

I knew deep down I needed more

In my life I needed a feeling

Of a love to come over me
I felt the truth and so I prayed for


Someone like you to hold my hand
Someone like you to understand
Someone like you to stand by me

All my life, yeah, all my life, yeah
Someone like you


I remember laying eyes on you
After we spoke deep inside I knew
I can feel the happiness your soul brings to me

Your presence makes my world complete

And I know you know what I'm feeling

There's a love coming over me
And it's true, what I've waited for
Your sweet and precious love, yeah


Someone like you to hold my hand
Someone like you to understand

Someone like you to stand by me
All my life, yeah, all my life, yeah
Someone like you


I felt there was an emptiness
I didn't know what was missing

I didn't know how to quench it

You are the answer to all my prayers

You are the one that I needed
You are the one I believe in
Oh, I believe in


Someone like you to hold my hand
Someone like you to understand

Someone like you to stand by me
All my life, yeah, oh baby


Someone like you to hold my hand
Someone like you to understand
Someone like you to stand by me

All my life, all my life, yeah
Someone like you


Someone like you
Someone
