Story Behind The Song
Marriage is a special and a sacred institution. This lady is smart enough and patient enough to realize that. Rather than marry impulsively or out of any other reason than true love and compatability she waits for the right man at the right moment.
Song Description
SOMEONE LIKE YOU is a slow/medium tempo tearjerker in which a loner-type woman always reflects back to one man whenever she feels lonely. They have always had somewhat of a plutonic relationship, but he has always wanted more. She has been in denial.

Lyrics
SOMEONE LIKE YOU
Verse 1 Most days I keep to myself
I don't bother anyone else
Taking one day at a time
But when I'm down and lonely
And I want someone to hold me
There's just one man on my mind
Cuz you wrote me those love letters
Saying we should get together
And spend some time
I don't know what I'm more afraid of
Maybe that you're wrong
Or maybe you're right
Chorus I've been waiting for someone like you
With those eyes full of love
And a heart that is true
I've been waiting for someone like you
I've been waiting ...for someone like you
Verse 2 One thing I know for certain
This heart is tired of hurting
I need someone to be mine
Whenever you're around me
Those words you wrote remind me
Hearts beat best when they're in time
Could you stay just a little longer
And hold me close just a little stronger
Than yesterday
You could be my one and only
And I could be the one to hear you say
Chorus (same as above)
Bridge: Why don't we build on a rock
And outlast the sands of time
Throughout the storms of this life
Our love will survive
