Looking for Someone Lyrics

I've been looking for someone
But I don't know his name
All the faces before me
They all look the same

But there's got to be one face
And one pair of eyes
That will light me on fire
When they're looking in mine

O I'm looking for someone
O I'm looking for someone

For many good years now
I've been walking alone
But I know when I find him
It will feel like home

When the wedding is over
I'll be able to say
I'm so glad that I waited
For this day

O I'm looking for someone
O I'm looking for someone
O I'm looking for someone
Who's looking for me

When the wedding is over
I'll be able to say
I'm so glad that I waited
For this day

O I'm looking for someone
O I'm looking for someone
O I'm looking for someone

Who's looking for me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

“I was toying with ‘Shadowland’ ending the album, but there is too much sadness in that song. It almost hurts me to listen to it. I wanted the record to end positively, with hope and C Major! I called in some of my better singing male friends for this - Ron Sexsmith, Noah Mintz, Todd Clark from Pilate, and Royal Wood. It’s a change from having seven of me on backing vocals, and I think it sounds beautiful!”

I think part of this has to do with waiting until you're married to have sex, however I really like that she got Ron Sexsmith and Todd Clark from Pilate for this. Totally rad.

Mostly the meaning is pretty obvious... she's still looking for that right person, and when she finds him she'll know.
