Only you could ever know how hard it was for me to let you go
Hard to face all those nights and suffer through all the fools advice
It seems to me it's not so bad, to try for the kind of love that we had
Oh, I need that romance one that grows strong when it's got no chance

Now you're gone away and I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up to comparison
And if I can't have the real thing, then I've got
To find someone just like you

(I hope someone will come today)
Somebody like you
(Someone to take me all the way)
Somebody like you
(Someone to take your place)
Somebody like you
(Someone to fill this empty space)

What you got it's what you need
There's pain in that but it's plain enough to see
Oh, I know I was satisfied
But nobody else came out of my side

Now you're gone away and I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up to comparison
And if I can't have the real thing, then I've got
To find someone just like you

(I hope someone will come today)
Somebody like you
(Someone to take me all the way)
Somebody like you

(Someone to take your place)
Somebody like you
(Someone to fill this empty space)
'Cause I need someone

Now you're gone away girl and I'm left to carry on
Ain't nobody else gonna bear up
Somebody like you
(You got the real thing)
Someone, somebody like you girl

(I hope someone will come today)
Somebody like you girl
(Someone to take me all the way)
To take my heart away

Somebody like you girl
(Someone to take your place)
I need someone like you girl
(Someone to fill this empty space)
Somebody like you girl
(I hope someone will come today)

Send me now, send me now somebody to love
(Someone to take me all the way)
Send me now, send me now somebody to love
(Someone to take your place)

I need someone
(Someone to fill this empty space)
(I hope someone will come today)
To take me all the way, to take me home
