Some One Like You 1919 'Angel Eyes'

When you are lonely,
wanting one only,
somebody's lonely too.
While you're longingly
waiting for some one,
Some one's longingly waiting for you.
When you meet, you'll know it,
one sigh will show it.
Lovers are wondrous wise.
You will both read the same happy story
by the love light in each other's eyes.

If I had someone like you, my dear,
to share today, tomorrow,
I'd see the folly of melancholy
and I'd bid farewell to sorrow.
The sky would seem a more radiant blue
and love the hours beguile.
My life would be brighter
with someone like you
to brighten it with a smile.
Some one like you.

Time passes sadly,
time lingers badly,
too long the days all seem
when you're waiting for one
that you long for,
and who only exists in a dream.
While others are mating,
you are still waiting
wond'ring if dreams come true.
Till some day you meet some body somewhere
who has something to whisper to you.

If I had someone like you, my dear,
to share today, tomorrow,
I'd see the folly of melancholy
and I'd bid farewell to sorrow.
The sky would seem a more radiant blue
and love the hours beguile.
My life would be brighter
with someone like you
to brighten it with a smile.
Some one like you.
