Someone You Loved
Lewis CapaldiCapaldi is mourning a lost lover who abandoned him. He addresses his ex, telling her he misses the feeling of being loved.
This is the saddest song I've ever written. That feeling when you begin to know someone and things have gone very well, but you've been reluctant to be as open as you want with things from the past and all that.

I'm going under and this time
I fear there's no one to save me
This all or nothing
Really got a way of driving me crazy
I need somebody to heal
Somebody to know
Somebody to have
Somebody to hold
It's easy to say
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked
The way you numbed all the pain
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to
Being someone you loved
I'm going under and this time
I fear there's no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving
Got me sleeping without you
Now, I need somebody to know
Somebody to heal
Somebody to have
Just to know how it feels
It's easy to say
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked
The way you helped me escape
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to
Being someone you loved
And I tend to close my eyes
When it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I'll be safe in your sound
Til I come back around
For now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to
Being someone you loved
But now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to
Being someone you loved
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to
Being someone you loved
without feeling
When Kate woke up, her arm was completely numb because she had slept on it wrong.
City people often become numb to the suffering of the homeless
To make healthy, whole, or sound; restore to health
Your broken bone should take about five months to heal
Remove all support and assistance from, usually suddenly
We can trust them to not pull the rug out from under us
To suppose
Contraction of "kind of": Rather; somewhat
