Someone Like You

  • Written and originally performed by Van Morrison
  • Included on the album "Poetic Champions Compose" 
  • The song was released in 1987
  • A really great First Dance song at wedding, particularly for those that want something slightly "different".

I've been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been travelin' all around the world
Waiting for you to come through

Someone like you 
Makes it all worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you

I've been travelin' a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come shining through

Someone like you 
Makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Makes me satisfied
Someone exactly like you

I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands

Someone like you
Makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you

I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different drum.
But just lately I have realized
Baby the best is yet to come

Someone like you
Makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you
Keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
Someone exactly like you
Someone exactly like you
The best is yet to come
The best is yet to come
