Rhett Akins - Love You Back lyrics

Seventeen, Kerilee Baker

Was setting my dreams on fire

Back of the class I was sinking so fast

Drowning in my own desire

I wrote poems and songs and letters

Asking her if she'd be mine

We graduated that May

Until this very day I'm still waiting on her reply

'Cause you can love somebody (love somebody)

You can love somebody, that's a natural fact

You can love somebody

But the hard part is finding somebody who'll love you back

Yeah, finding somebody who will love you back

Well, the years have gone by and I realize

Nothing really much has changed

Still searching high and low for that single soul

Carrying a mutual flame

Well, I had a few dear near misses

Saying they could hear the music play

But I marched on believing just to find

I was leading another one man parade

You can love somebody (love somebody)

You can love somebody, that's a natural fact

You can love somebody

But the hard part is finding somebody who'll love you back

Yeah, finding somebody who will love you back

But I ain't giving up (ain't giving up)

No it means too much to me (means too much to me)

But it's got to be right (so right)

In giving as well as receive

You can love somebody (love somebody)

You can love somebody, it's as simple as that

You can love somebody

But the hard part is finding somebody who'll love you back

Yeah, finding somebody who will love you
