Somebody Like You
Keith Urban · 2002
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- Hey! I wanna love you baby
- Uh huh
- Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
- Shinin' down on me and you
Echo the hook
- Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine
- Shinin' down on me and you
- When you put your arms around me
- You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do
