You ready? (Yeah yeah yeah)
So I say step closer, you know
'Cause you see it and I see it you know girl
Yeah yeah yeah
(Protoje)
Hold me tight so that I won't forget
'Cause every girl that I have been with, they don't know me yet
So I'm over it
The way it worth it we should go for it
For if we try we shall not fail and hence we won't regret
So how it set?
(Tessanne)
So many sleepless nights
With you resting on my mind
Is this what it seems or am I only dreaming
That I'd find someone like you
(Tessanne)
I will pick you up when you're feeling bad
Kiss a smile to your lips when you're feeling sad
Tell me what you want 'cause I can deal with that
That's a fact
Got the remedy here for you, yeah
(Protoje)
I hope you knowing what you do to me, all of this is new to me
Holding out for you to see, just time and opportunity
Wan' give you the best of me fi carry on the legacy
I've got to find someone like you
(Protoje)
I tell you this is the one, the one
Please don't let me lose this one
And I've been watching you all along
Have you now where you belong
(Tessanne)
Tell you this is the one, the one
Please don't let me lose this one
And now I've got you where you belong
Please don't let me lose this one
Somebody like you, yeah yeah
Somebody like you, oh yeah! (You know, you know, oh oh)
Somebody like, body like, body-da-da-da-na-na-na-na yeah yeah yeah
(Somebody like you) Somebody like, somebody like
Protoje! (Yeah yeah)
Can you feel me! (Yes, you know I do)
Somebody, somebody, somebody like you
Oh yes, I telling you
Somebody like you
About This Song
"Someone Like You (Feat. Tessanne Chin)" is a tender reggae love song that explores the vulnerability of finding genuine connection after experiencing superficial relationships. Protoje's verses reveal his longing for someone who truly understands him, contrasting past encounters where partners "don't know me yet" with the deep intimacy he seeks with this special person. The collaboration with Tessanne Chin, who won The Voice that same year, adds a soulful dimension through her powerful vocals that complement Protoje's conscious reggae style. The song blends traditional reggae rhythms with modern production, reflecting Protoje's role in the contemporary Jamaican music revival. It stands out for its honest portrayal of romantic yearning and the rare chemistry between two of Jamaica's most respected contemporary artists, capturing both personal vulnerability and the timeless appeal of reggae's capacity for emotional storytelling.
