“Somebody To You” is a modern pop and R&B song by Joy Crookes from her second studio album, Juniper.
Unlike many songs on the record, this track was only ever teased much closer to its release as the sixth and final single.
Despite containing very prominent male backing vocals—and no featured...
[Verse 1]
You're in every photo on my teenage bedroom wall
Though you're not even famous, I'm your biggest fan of all
Putting you first, I paid the price
Pedestal, I put you up way too high
Who am I when I'm out of your sight?
I wanna see how we look apart
[Chorus]
'Cause I spent seven hours tangled up in your arms
Being somebody to you
You keep pulling petals off the flowers
Keeping hands on the love that you've been scared to lose
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
If you wanna get me back tomorrow, gotta let go tonight
Oh, you gotta let go tonight
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
[Verse 2]
The less I need you, the more I see you
As a mortal man without me holding you up
Show me the world, then you close the curtain
Brought me up on conditional love
Stuck in your orbit, it's dizzying
I wanna know me without your influence
Lose your hold, not your baby no more
But that doesn't mean I'm losing love
[Chorus]
'Cause I spent seven hours tangled up in your arms
Being somebody to you
You keep pulling petals off the flowers
Keeping hands on the love that you've been scared to lose
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine (I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine)
If you wanna get me back tomorrow, gotta let go tonight
Oh, you gotta let go tonight
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
You gotta let go
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
[Outro]
I spent seven hours tangled up in your arms
Being somebody to you
