I know why waited, I know why I've been blue
I pray this night for someone exactly like you
I know why my mother, she taught me to be true
'Cause she meant me for someone, baby, yeah, exactly like you
You make me feel so grand
I wanna hand the world to you
You just need to understand this dream I'm dreaming
And every scheme I've schemed, I
I know why I waited and I know why I've been blue
I've been waiting, I've been waiting
I've been waiting for somebody just like you
You make me feel so grand
I wanna hand the world to you
'Cause you just seem to understand, oh, every scheme I'm scheming
And every dream I'm dreaming
I know why I waited and right now I know why I've been blue
I've been waiting, I've been waiting, whoa, baby
For somebody, somebody just like you
I've been waiting for you, baby, every day of my life
That's why I've been true
My mother told me, she told me I'd find somebody
Just exactly like you
