I know that you’re out there
Knowing that there’s someone out here thinkin’ of you
In your heart and in your mind
I know there is no doubt that someone loves you
And I know that you know
That I’ll be waiting here when you have need of me
And when the world has chained you down
I know you know my love will set you free
How does it feel to know that someone loves you
How does it feel to know that someone’s always thinkin’ of you
Oh and how does it feel to know that someone puts no one above you
How does it feel to know that someone loves you, someone loves you

I have come to know and love you
Like I’ve never known or loved another
Words have not been made
That could describe these feelings we have for each other
And I would go to any length
To let you know at all times that I care
‘Cause I want you to know
That any time you reach for me you’ll find me there

How does it feel to know that someone loves you
How does it feel to know that someone’s always thinkin’ of you
Oh and how does it feel to know that someone puts no one above you
How does it feel to know that someone loves you, someone loves you

Someone loves you, how does it feel to know it
Someone loves you, how does it feel to know that someone
Loves you, someone loves you, how does it feel, how does it feel
How does it feel to know that someone loves you
Somebody loves you, how does it feel, how does it feel
How does it feel to know that someone loves you
Someone loves you, somebody loves you
Somebody loves you, how does it feel to know it
Somebody loves you
