Song of the Day: "Someone"

I was working in lab today, alone, and I put on Pandora like I normally do... on the Musiq Soulchild station this time and this song starts to play. I never really paid attention to the words until today, and well *sigh* It's beautiful, I LOVE IT! I wish I could play an instrument! Maybe I'll try to learn this song, just this song... it's worth it, I think!

Well, the original version talks about a girl, but well, I switched it up a bit, and made my own version of it (changes are in bold print). Here goes! "Someone", by Musiq Soulchild, with my slight revisions.

Here's Passion's cover of this song. (Passion, by the way, is also AMAZING! Check him out! YouTube username: passionsf)  Enjoy!

I never wanted a man that wanted

Me for my name or material things, see

I always hope for a man that’s so sure

Emotionally secure, with spiritual faith

A man that I can trust with all of my secrets

And even listen to all of my issues

A man who never judge

Me or how I was

He deals with me strictly through love

Chorus:

Someone who will put up with the things

Loving me can bring

But still be there to see us through

Someone who would put up

With the strange and complicated things

Cause I would do the same for him too

Someone who I can be real with

Ain’t gotta be perfect

Because loving one another is all that matters

It’s not hard to explain

So believe me when I say

That I’ve found all of that in you

All that I hope for, a friendship that’s so pure

A guy I can talk to about whatever is on my heart

A man that needs me

That trust and believes me

That won’t take my kindness as some kind of weakness

A man who bares his soul, who’s willing to let go

A man who respects me and knows how to take control

And when I am feeling down

Cause things are going wrong

He fills me up and makes me feel strong

Chorus

You are that someone who loves me

Through all my imperfections

You know my heart is filled with nothing but good intentions

You are the one that told me

Long as we got us

Nothing matters

You are the one that sees the joy through the pain

You are my light through the rain

Here and now

Boy, I am saying it’s you

You’re my heart

It’s you

You’re that someone I can truly say that I’ll never find another love like you
