Long hair
Beautiful eyes
Sweet words
To dream of
But I don't know what it is
It seems like she's missing something
Lovely smile
White teeth
Cute dimples
Soft hands, frozen by the cold
I miss the warmth I had with you
Everything she says
Really seems like genuine involvement
And everything she does
She does well and feels so familiar
But when I say something
It's like a battle with insecurity
She seems perfect
She seems the right woman
But she's just not like you
All those dreams
Come true
When you listen
With heart and soul she tells her story
But in a totally different language
Irresistible
Unreachable
Untouchable
Too good to be true
Yet the one I'd love most
'Cause she's just not like you
She turns the cold to warm
She makes November May
She turns the sad happy
She straightens my crooked back
But doesn't bring you back
Because everything she says
Really seems like genuine involvement
And everything she does
She does well and feels so familiar
But when I say something
It's like a battle with insecurity
She seems perfect, she seems the right woman
She's just not like you
Long hair, beautiful eyes
Sweet words
To dream of
But I don't know what it is
It seems like she's missing something
Because everything she says
Really seems like genuine involvement
And everything she does
She does well and feels so familiar
But when I say something
It's like a battle with insecurity
She seems perfect, she seems the right woman
She's just not like you

SONG MEANING

Picture someone who checks every box: long flowing hair, bright eyes, soft hands, and a smile that can turn chilly November into blooming May. That is the woman Nick & Simon describe in “Ze Lijkt Net Niet Op Jou”. On paper she is flawless, her words sound caring, her presence feels familiar, yet the singer’s heart keeps whispering one stubborn truth: she is almost, but not quite, the person he once loved.

The song is a bittersweet reminder that perfection cannot compete with genuine connection. Every glowing compliment is followed by a pang of doubt, showing that true warmth lives in the unique details shared with one special someone. No matter how irresistible the new woman appears, the memory of you shines brighter than perfection, turning each fresh romance into a tender echo of the love that got away.
