Someone like you

"Someone like you is the last song in the record, and it was… Again, I guess that when I was writing it, I was feeling pretty miserable and pretty lonely, which I guess kind of contradicts Rolling in the Deep, when I was like I'm going to be fine… this one was me kind of… On my knees, really."

"And I'm sure there will be another relationship – well. I hope so, anyway – that helps change me, define me as well. But I can imagine being about forty and looking for him again, only to turn up and find that he's settled with a beautiful wife and beautiful kids and he's completely happy… and I'm still on my own"

I heard that you settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

You know how time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up put of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over yet

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Adele.
