Use Somebody Lyrics – Kings of Leon
Use Somebody Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Caleb Followill]
I've been roaming around, always looking down at all I see
Painted faces fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you and all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
[Chorus: Caleb Followill]
Someone like you
[Verse 2: Caleb Followill]
Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice
[Chorus: Caleb Followill]
Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me
Somebody
[Bridge: Caleb Followill]
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
Don't let it out
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus: Caleb Followill]
Someone like you
Somebody
Someone like you
Somebody
Someone like you
Somebody
[Outro: Caleb Followill]
I've been roaming around, always looking down at all I see
