Lost Someone

"Lost Someone" is a song recorded by James Brown in 1961. It was written by Brown and Famous Flames members Bobby Byrd and Baby Lloyd Stallworth. Like "Please, Please, Please" before it, the song's lyrics combine a lament for lost love with a plea for forgiveness. The single was a #2 R&B hit and reached #48 on the pop chart. According to Brown, "Lost Someone" is based on the chord changes of the Conway Twitty song "It's Only Make Believe".

Critic Peter Guralnick wrote of the recording:

    Lost Someone

    by: Cat Power

    I lost someone
    A million to one
    Ten thousand people
    Under my fault
    Someone, the one
    My one, the only one
    That's the someone
    The someone, the only one
    That someone that I lost
    You're nothin' but a stranger
    Come on home to me
    I'm so weak on my knees
    Help me, help me please, please, please
    Cook outta money, I love you
    I lost someone
    One trillion to one
    A million people
    Under the big old sun, the sea
    My one on the street
    Lookin' like a bomb
    That's my one
    That's my someone, he's the one
    Please help that one
    He's nothin' but a stranger
    Bring him home to me
    He's so weak on
    Both his bended knees
