Parents Lyrics by Emma Steinbakken

Home

2023

[Verse 1]
It never hurts to say, "Hello"
Until the part where we let go
'Cause I see my heroes stumble and fall
It turned out they weren't heroes at all
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought our house was a castle
Nothing could break down those walls
It didn't matter how much they loved us
It fell apart
[Chorus]
So I'm scared I'll end up like my parents
I don't wanna do that to you
And just see the kids on the weekends
Because one of us had to move
I know that staying together
Can split up a family in two
So I never believed in forever
But if that's ever gonna come true
I need somebody like you
[Post-Chorus]
(I need somebody, I need somebody)
Somebody like you
(I need somebody) I need somebody
[Verse 2]
It's not that I wanna be alone
But it's less to lose when you're on your own
Ohh, and why would I ever get it right
When I know how hard my heroes tried?
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought our house was a castle
Nothing could break down those walls
It didn't matter how much they loved us
It fell apart
[Chorus]
So I'm scared I'll end up like my parents
I don't wanna do that to you
And just see the kids on the weekends
Because one of us had to move
But I know that staying together
Can split up a family in two
So I never believed in forever
But if that's ever gonna come true
I need somebody like you
[Post-Chorus]
(I need somebody, I need somebody)
Somebody like you
(I need somebody, I need somebody)
Somebody like you
(I need somebody, I need somebody)
Somebody like you
[Outro]
So I'm scared I'll end up like my parents
I don't wanna do that to you
I never believed in forever
But if that's ever gonna come true
I need somebody like you
