Discovering Love's Perfect Match: 'Exactly Like You' Insights
Lyrics
I used to have a perfect sweetheart
I used to have an idealized romantic partner
Not a real one, just a dream
Not a real person, but a figment of imagination
A wonderful vision of us as a team
Envisioning a wonderful partnership or relationship
Can you imagine how I feel now
Reflecting on the emotions now that love is real and ideal
Love is real now, it's ideal
Expressing the joy of experiencing genuine love
You're just what I wanted
Addressing the current romantic partner as the desired one
And now it's nice to live
Feeling content and happy in the present
Paradise to live
Describing life with the partner as a paradise
I know why I've waited
Understanding the reasons for waiting in the past
Know why I've been blue
Acknowledging feelings of sadness
Prayed each night for someone
Praying for a partner exactly like the current one
Exactly like you
Reiterating the desire for a specific type of companion
Why should we spend money
Questioning the need to spend money on entertainment
On a show or two
Challenging the uniqueness of love scenes portrayed elsewhere
No one does those love scenes
Desiring a love that mirrors the current relationship
Exactly like you
Reaffirming the uniqueness of the current love
You make me feel so grand
Expressing the partner's significant impact
I want to hand the world to you
Wishing to give the world to the partner due to intense feelings
I hope you'll understand
Hoping for understanding despite foolish schemes and dreams
Each foolish little scheme I'm schemin'
Acknowledging and expressing the romantic dreams
And dream I'm dreamin'
Emphasizing the idealistic nature of dreams
Now I know why mother
Understanding the mother's teachings on truthfulness
Taught me to be true
Realizing the intended connection with a partner like the current one
She meant me for someone
Attributing the mother's teachings to finding a similar partner
Exactly like you
Reiterating the desire for a companion exactly like the current one
