Somebody Lyrics

	


On a diner down on Broadway they make small talk,
When she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup.
He jokes about his love life and says he's 'bout ready to give up.
But thats when she says "Ive been there before
But keep on looking cuz maybe who your looking for is..

Somebody in the next cart
Somebody on the mornin' train
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at but never really see 
Somewhere out there
Is somebody

Across town in a crowded elevator
he cant forget the things that waitress said
he usually reads the paper
but today he reads a strangers face instead
It's that blue-eyed girl from two floors up
Maybe she's the one 
Maybe he could fall in love with

Somebody in the next cart
Somebody on the mornin' train
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at but never really see 
Somewhere out there
Is somebody

Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
how they didnt realize it until that day
And he wonders why he searched so long
When she was always there at that diner waiting on

Somebody in the next cart
Somebody on the mornin' train
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at but never really see 
Somewhere out there
Oh, somewhere out there
Is somebody

I really like this song. I only wish I had heard it before now when I was single, because it gives hope to those who haven't found the "right one."

Okay so...FridayThe13thNik.That was a Horrid interpretation. Ha ha, no offence...but not everyone cares about the bra ;). AND they don't get married. the last we see of them they'r crouching on the ground picking up spilled coffee (you could take that pretty dirty)...no but its a cute song.

They get married, if you watch the video for Love Needs a Holiday, it is the same couple and it picks up where Somebody ended. Reba also talked about this during an interview.

I like this song, and I think its about someone finding love in the obvious place, and they finally notice it...
