Someone to Love

"I thought it was appropriate to post a song basically about love in time for the 'love-iest' day of the year. Hope you all have a wonderful Valentines day even if it just going to involve you, your cat and several helpings of hummus and carrot sticks. Which coincidently is my reality for most days of the year but hey: I'm not complaining. I really really love hummus."

- Maisie Peters

"Someone to Love" is an original song by Maisie Peters, uploaded to her YouTube channel on February 6, 2016.

Lyrics
Someone chooses you out from the pack 'Cause they like something special about you And that will start the chain reaction Do you like them back? If you do, you'll fall into some sort of dance Taking steps back and forth, to see where you stand Playing games with your eyes Letting them decide if you'll take the chance

'Cause then it makes sense all the songs where they said That love shines like a light from your skin We're creatures of herds forming bonds made of words Hoping this time, we'll actually win This time we'll actually win

Then unless you're together til you're faded peach Cracks start to form, the ground moves from your feet And the things that you loved, are no longer things that you need And maybe it ends with a bang but more often It ends with a whisper, 'cause you've just forgotten How to be something the other one wants to call home

For a while it makes sense then it won't and you're left With this emptiness filling your gut But we're creatures of habit So no matter how damaged, oh We'll always want someone to love We'll always want someone to love

The earth will keep moving The sun will keep rising And love will keep shifting and breaking and hiding And still we keep searching for someone to spend all our time on

'Cause it might not make sense right now maybe not yet But I promise one day you will see We're creatures of trust, one day someone will come And they'll build up the person you'll be And you'll see That you always need someone to love
