SOMEONE LIKE YOU
by Adele
I heard that you're 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 that 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 beg.
I remember you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
You know how the 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 out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face
And that 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 beg.
I remember you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
