Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true Something’s been trying to hold me down
and leave me no hope on the battleground.
I’m knocking on doors. Come on, let me in.
Desperately craving the feminine
Then you came to me,
genuinely.
How could I get lucky like this?
What have I done? This type of thing’s just a fantasy
The story is laid out so wretchedly,
like out of a film or a magazine.
Appeal to the classical masculine
But gradually,
it’s dawning on me;
this isn’t like in a dream,
this is for real. Being yourself; what does that [really] mean?
Seeing yourself is the hardest thing. Someone like me
With someone like you
How unlikely
Too good to be true Timing your movements so accurately
Hearing you breathing so musically
Unity strengthening rapidly
Knowing you’ll always come back to me
You’re never too close
or far away;
perfect somewhere in between,
vintage machine Seeing it’s already time to leave
I got to go out, I need space to breathe
Go before everything’s caving in
Understand that, oh my heroine?
But someone like you,
so hard to believe.
Sure this is not just a dream?
Wake up and see. Being yourself is a lonely thing
if you never pick it up and just let it ring. Someone like me
(It’s what I’ve always dreamed of)
With someone like you
(More than satisfactory)
How unlikely
(It’s real. You’re here beside me)
Too good to be true
(Come on, let’s share this moment)
