Analysis of Someone

Robert Pippen 1981 (Jackson Mississippi)



Is there someone out there for me,
Someone special that can take this locked heart and set it free,
Love me for who I am not what I can be,

Listen when I have a lot on my mind,
Help out when our lives are in a bind,
Could it really be you I'm looking to find,

I'm tired of building something that always falls apart,
Sick and tired of searching and having to hit restart,
Don't want to keep reissueing the keys to this old,lonely and always broken heart,

Don't need money I need someone time and alot of love,
If it came to marriage we could show our love by setting free two white doves,
Is this a fantasy or is there a chance to find that kind of love,
