   I peer through windows,

   watch life go by.

Dream of tomorrow

   and wonder why.

   The past is holding me,

   keeping life at bay

I wander lost in yesterday.

   Wanting to fly,

   but scared to try…

But if someone like you,

found someone like me,

then suddenly,

nothing would ever be the same.

My heart would take wing

and I’d feel so alive,

cuz someone like you found me.

   So many secrets

   I long to share,

all I have needed

   is someone there.

   To help me see a world

   I’ve never seen before –

a love to open every door.

   To set me free

   so I can soar…

If someone like you,

found someone like me,

then suddenly,

nothing would ever be the same.

There’d be a new way to live,

a new life to love,

if someone like you found me.

Ohh, if…

Someone like you,

found someone like me,

then suddenly,

nothing would ever be the same!

My heart would take wing

and I feel so alive!

If someone like you,

loved me,

loved me,

loved me.
