Somebody Like You

An MP3 of dubious quality is available here.

Accidentally met in Kinburn Park
At ten to six, it was getting dark
You said you’d had a dreadful day,
It seemed the world was in your way
You said “I could do with somebody like you”

You’re sick and tired of being sick and tired,
You’ve had it up to here with being down
You need some inspiration or someone inspired
To pick you up and turn you around
You said “I could do with somebody like you

“Somebody like you to hold on to, and catch me when I fall
“I could do with somebody like you, to start me when I’m stalled”

You wore that scarf around your head,
I thought you really suited red
And it was all that I could do
To keep myself from kissing you
Because I could do with somebody like you

Somebody like you, to hold on to, and catch me when I fall
I could do with somebody like you, to start me when I’m stalled

I could do with somebody like you, I could do with somebody like you
Somebody like you.
