Adele’s “Someone Like You” tells the emotional story of accepting a painful breakup after discovering an ex has moved on. Despite lingering heartbreak and memories, the narrator chooses grace over resentment, wishing her former lover happiness while struggling to let go and hoping one day to find love again.
Someone Like You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard that you’re settled down
That you found a girl and you’re married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the light
[Pre-Chorus]
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it
I had hoped you’d see my face
And that you’d be reminded that for me, it isn’t over
[Chorus]
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
[Verse 2]
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
[Pre-Chorus]
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it
I had hoped you’d see my face
And that you’d be reminded that for me, it isn’t over
[Chorus]
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
[Bridge]
Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they’re memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
[Chorus]
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don’t forget me, I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I beg
I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
