Someone Like You

Who's the very muse
for the first drawings
in a cave?
Who inspired the requiem
that sent him to his grave?

I bet it was someone,
I bet it was someone,
someone like you.

The recipient of Vincent's ear
that left him traumatized,
Who was wrapped in blue
leaving Gershwin rhapsodized?

I bet it was someone,
I bet it was someone,
someone like you.

When I go to bed at night,
pray to God that I
Create a masterpiece
that's worthy of your ears
and of your
Eyes and immortalize you and I
For someone who inquires
about the girl
where every inspiration lies.

Lennon wrote Please Please Me
well before they came stateside.
McCartney wrote for no one
but I'm pretty sure he lied.

He wrote it for someone,
he wrote it for someone,
someone like you.

And if I should die,
God forbid that I
Pass away with ideas
left in limbo
in creative purgatory.
And the day
that you pass away,
No one knows
that girl happens
to be the very girl
where every inspiration lay.

Heaven help the world
when you're no longer
for our eyes.
Heaven rain the colors down
to form another prize.

She better be someone,
she better be someone,
she better be someone,
she better someone,
she better be someone,
she better be someone,
someone like you.
