Patrick Watson - Man Like You Lyrics






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

  1. n.... K....

    that Saw solo though... :)

  2. V.... T....

    A Masterpiece! No doubt. Exellent work!

  3. w.... o....

    This man looks homeless

    w.... o....

    He looks like a composer to me, bordering onto creative genius who's been up all night drinking coffee and downloading inspiration.

  4. c.... ....

    It's criminal that masterpieces like this get so little view...Tom Misch's cover is very pleasing but this is soooo much richer.

  5. A.... D....

    I’m here from c'est pas moi je le jure (:
    Life’s not made for me, but i seem to be made for life.

  6. S.... A....

    Fucked that song up. Stupid Fuck...WHY!?!?!?

  7. S.... P....

    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

  8. M.... U....

    Wonderful

  9. T.... P....

    Felt inspired by this and added a version of this amazing song on my channel but with rain and thunder as well in it. Thanks for this Patrick! ❤🌪

  10. M.... B....

  14. C.... S....

    The saw 😍

    C.... S....

    I was wondering what he was doing standing there at the start. His demeanor was strange. I had never seen a man preparing for a saw solo before. Forgive me.

    C.... S....

    It was epic jajaj

  15. B.... L....

    This piece of music moves me in a way that no other piece does. X

  16. m.... w....

    Tom Misch's majestic cover brought me here. But I heard the singing saw first in my dreams :)

    m.... w....

    Same! What a beautiful piece of work!

    Thank you.
