[Verse 1]
This is a song for someone all alone
This is a song to play when they are gone
To help you to begin again even though you've just begun
This is a song for someone

This is a song for someone wide awake
This is a song to give a little break
To help you slow down a bit now that the day is done
This is a song for someone

[Chorus]
Someone who laughs
Someone who cries
Someone whose heart beats just like mine
Another soul who soldiers on
Oh, this is a song for someone

[Verse 2]
This is a song for someone on the line
This is a song to help you kill the time
May you come home again sooner than the sun
This is a song for someone

[Chorus]
Someone who laughs
Someone who cries
Someone whose heart beats just like mine
Another soul who soldiers on
Oh, this is a song for someone

[Bridge]
I can't believe there's nothing more to feel when all our time is done
I hope to see the uncertainty leave before we're gone

[Verse 3]
This is a song for someone looking back
For something good that someone said you lack
May it make you whole again if only while it runs
This is a song for someone

[Chorus]
Someone who laughs
Someone who cries
Someone whose heart beats just like mine
Another soul who soldiers on
Oh, this is a song for someone
Yeah, this is a song for someone

[Outro]
This is a song for someone I don't know
May your days get brighter as you go
I guess it's never easy to love what we become
This is a song for someone
