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
