Giant Rooks - Somebody Like You Lyrics

He just turned ninenteen, she's twenty-two
Now he got laid off this afternoon
She's workin' part-time in a second-hand store
Stackin' dreams like books on her bedroom floor
They burn the evenin', smokin' the dragon
'Cause in oblivion, it feels like heaven
She said, "It's true, I been
Waitin' for somebody like you"

I let my guard down for a moment
Wherever you go, I'll be goin' too
I've been waitin'
Waitin' for somebody like you

For somebody like you
For somebody like you

She built her kingdom on a secret
Walls are fallin' down and mother's weepin'
There's gotta be a way to turn invisible
Father's on his knees, prayin' for miracles
While she is drivin' down to Georgia
With the sunset kissin' her shoulders
God knows it's true, I been
Waitin' for somebody like you

When I was scared, washed-out, and lonely
I needed somebody to hold me

I let my guard down for a moment
Wherever you go, I'll be goin' too
I've been waitin'
Waitin' for somebody like you
I let my guard down for a moment
Wherever you go, I'll be goin' too
I've been waitin'
Waitin' for somebody like you

(Wooh)
For somebody like you

Oh, eternal silence
Nobody here to steal our time
Sunburnt skin and
There are no mountains we need to climb
If you go there, I will go there
Never look back 'cause we still got time
All of my life, I've been waitin'
I've been waitin' for somebody like you

For somebody like you

I let my guard down for a moment
Wherever you go, I'll be goin' too
I've been waitin'
Waitin' for somebody like you
I let my guard down for a moment
Wherever you go, I'll be goin' too
I've been waitin'
Waitin' for somebody like you
