Song - "People Like You" (Ben Cooper/Georgia Middleman)

Here's a song I wrote with Georgia Middleman. We grabbed an entire five day week to write together last fall, and here's one of the songs we came up with. I included this chart on a recent post, so I figured I'd let you hear the song! Please leave any feedback if you'd like.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU                                                                             11-2-10

(COOPER/MIDDLEMAN)

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I CAN DO ANYTHING

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU TELL ME HOW I’M THE APPLE OF YOUR EYE

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU NEVER LEAVE ME HANGING WHEN I’M ON THE EDGE

YOU ALWAYS HAVE MY BACK
WHAT I’M TRYING TO SAY IS THAT

PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE GOOD FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME

OUT OF ALL OF THE FISHES IN THE DEEP BLUE SEA

I FOUND SOMEBODY WHO MAKES ME AS HAPPY AS CAN BE

YEAH, PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE GOOD FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU LET ME HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON A DOZEN TIMES

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU TELL A JOKE AND YOU DON’T EVEN CRACK A SMILE

MAYBE IT’S THE WAY YOU UNDERSTAND I DON’T LIKE MY EGGS RUNNY

NONE OF MY IDIOSYNCRASIES FRIGHTEN YOU

AND THAT SAYS TO ME

WHAT DID I DO

BEFORE THERE WAS YOU

I CAN’T EVEN GO BACK THAT FAR

IF LOVE IS THE SONG

THEN YOU ARE THE DRUM
IN PERFECT SYNC WITH EVERY SINGLE BEAT OF MY HEART
