Someone Special Music and Lyrics by David Nigel Chalmers

Verse 1

I met a girl in my hometown when I was young
She turned my whole world upside down at 21
And every day, I thought of her and the life we share
And then one day she went away and I don’t know where

Chorus

Sometimes you can’t tell the forest from the trees
and everyone here looks the same
I know you must be someone special to me
But I just can’t remember your name

Verse 2

Some kindly folks left me here but not for long
And very soon they’ll take me home where I belong
I wish she’d come and visit me I feel alone
But I know I’ll see her soon when I get home

Chorus

Sometimes you can’t tell the forest from the trees
and everyone here looks the same
I know you must be someone special to me
But I just can’t remember your name


Bridge

It’s funny how things turned out this way
And was that stranger here again yesterday

Instrumental

Repeat Bridge

It’s funny how things turned out this way
And was that stranger here again yesterday

Chorus
Sometimes you can’t tell the forest from the trees
and everyone here looks the same
I know you must be someone special to me
But I just can’t remember your name
