Lyrics
Someone Like You
I walked down to the far side of town
Out where the lights are all burned out
I was looking for someone like you
I was searching trying to make my dreams come true
The Princess of Passion who fought with the King of all truth
Both turned away, can't help me find someone like you
Here in the darkness, lost and confused
Searching for someone that I thought I knew
I froze with the Icemen, I walked through the fire
I rode with the army of the Queen of Desire
I stumbled in shadow, I stood in the light
Without notice you slipped from my side
Now I'm searching for a way back to you
I heard the horsemen I looked in their eyes
Broken commandments, they saw through my disguise
I asked them, "Is love just a game?"
Laughing, they said the end is all the same
I climbed to the top of the mountain of God
I stood at the edge of the universe
I heard voices crying, "What is it for?"
I heard echoes in tears rolling around the world
I froze with the Icemen, I walked through the fire
I rode with the army of the Queen of Desire
I stumbled in shadow, I stood in the light
Without notice you slipped from my side
Now I'm searching for a way back to you
I froze with the Icemen, I walked through the fire
I rode with the army of the Queen of Desire
I stumbled in shadow, I stood in the light
Without notice you slipped from my side
Now I'm searching for a way back to you
