Someone Like You Lyrics By Adele and Dan Wilson

The lyrics to Someone Like You were written by the singer herself along with American songwriter Dan Wilson, who is a multiple Grammy-winning artist for his work with the band Semisonic. The track came out in 2011 on her album 21. Someone Like You is a powerful ballad about closure and coming to terms with lost love. It’s about losing ‘the one’ and still loving them and hoping that they are happy with their new partner. Written after a tough breakup, Adele touches upon themes of love, heartbreak, resilience, and self-acceptance that struck a chord around the globe. The emotional rawness of it all, coupled together with the beautiful piano playing in its closing seconds, has made it one of her most iconic songs.

Someone Like You Lyrics

Someone Like You Lyrics

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 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

Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes they’re memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don’t forget me, I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
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
