Lyrics Patrick Watson

Patrick Watson

Man Like You

I knew a boy who was swallowed by the sky

By the flashing lights

I knew a man who got lost in the big dark blue

And came out alive

I knew a boy I knew a man that looked a lot like you

I knew a time you could stand still beside

Never rushing by

I knew a place you'd go for your head to explode

Into peace of mind

I knew a time I knew a place that felt a lot like you

I knew a boy I knew a man who looked a lot like you

Just like you

I knew a friend that would hold on to the flames

Keep them from burning you

I knew a smile like that could see through all of the stones

That the world had thrown

I knew a smile I knew a friend who looked a lot like you

I knew a boy I knew a man who looked a lot like you
