[Verse 1]
I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to love and treat me right
Someone like you, someone like you
It always seem that time ain't right
Don't feel wrong when I'm alone at night
What I gotta do, all I gotta do

[Pre-Chorus]
For someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you

[Chorus]
Why won't the stars align?
Oh, tell me
Why won't the stars align?
Somebody tell me
Why won't the stars align?
Whoa, tell me, yeah
Why won't the stars align?

[Verse 2]
Someonе tell me what I got to do
Who I gotta call? Which god I got to pray to?
Mmm, someonе tell me who I got to be
For a love like yours, I'm down on my knees
[Pre-Chorus]
For someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you

[Chorus]
Oh, why won't the stars align?
Oh, tell me
Why won't the stars align?
Somebody, somebody tell me
Why won't the stars align?
Oh, why don't they tell me?
Yeah, why don't the stars align?

[Bridge]
I'ma be all right
I depend on the sun coming after the rain
I'ma be just fine
I depend on love coming back again
If it don't, if it won't
Lord, won't you come
And won't you tell me something
If it don't, if it won't

[Chorus]
Lord, why won't the stars align?
Lord, tell me, yeah!
Why won't the stars align?
Somebody, lord, somebody tell me
Oh, why won't the stars align?
The stars align, lord, tell me
Why won't the stars align?
No, no, no! No-no-no!
