Someone Like You



I prayed I'd find

Someone Like You

Strong and true

But you I never knew

Would be the one

Who would undo

What was done

Unbreak what was broken

So my heart can reopen

And without knowing

Where we were going

To a place where

At last we were safe

And with each step we took

Our worst fears

Weed overtake

Are faith and fate

To that we now thank

For not letting go

And continuing to hold

The truth we now know

In our eyes it shows

At last we can be free

With knowing that

True love is what's

Between you and me...

All my life

I prayed I'd find

Someone Like You

Strong and true

But you I never knew

Would be the one

Who would undo

What was done

Unbreak what was broken

So my heart can reopen

And without knowing

Where we were going

To a place where

At last we were safe

And with each step we took

Our worst fears

Weed overtake

Are faith and fate

To that we now thank

For not letting go

And continuing to hold

The truth we now know

In our eyes it shows

At last we can be free

With knowing that

True love is what's

Between you and me...
