Cover art for Someone Special lyrics by Poets Of The Fall

"Wake up to the sound of rain upon my sill Pick up the pieces of my yesterday old thrill Can I deliver this used up shiver To how I pronounce my life And leave it up to faith to go by its own will"

The first line is self-explanatory. In the second line, the narrator is rebuilding his/her feelings, love, towards the person he/she had loved before. Yesterday old could possibly mean a short time, so the narrator had lost all his/her feelings towards the person he/she loved in a short time, but is rebuilding them again. Or, the narrator had a great time with the person he/she loves yesterday, and can't wait for the next time.

In the third & fourth line, the narrator wants to share his/her feelings with the person he/she loves, but is unsure. Used up could mean the narrator has felt like that before (going back to line two) or has kept them inside for too long, not being able to show them to the person the narrator loves. The person is how the narrator pronounces his/her life, the person makes the narrator's life complete.

In the fifth line, we learn that the narrator could be religious, and leaves the power to decide if he/she could start a relationship with the person, to a spiritual entity: for example, God.

The narrator could also trust, highly, in the possibility that he/she could start a relationship with the person he/she loves.

"Back row to the left A little to the side Slightly out of place Look beyond the light Where you'd least expect There's someone special"

The male/female narrator in the song thinks about the person and wants that person to notice the narrator. The narrator is shy, perhaps unsocial, and walks his/her own road, but wants to be noticed by that person.

"A foggy morning greets me quietly today I smell a fragrance in the wind blowing my way And ever further I run to find her I yearn to define my life Placing my faith in chance to meet me in half way"

First line is self-explanatory, the narrator is now outside, looking for the person he/she loves. In the second line, we learn that the person the narrator loves, is a female. The narrator smells her fragrance (pretty self-explanatory) or tries to convince to him/herself that she is nearby, when she's really not.

In the third line, the narrator keeps on searching for her, perhaps even more actively, as he/she could be running, trying to get to the right place at the right time.

In the fourth line, the narrator is desperately trying to find her, as she makes the narrator's life complete.

In the fifth line, the narrator possibly puts his/her trust in a powerful spiritual entity (God) so that God could make the two meet atleast for once. The narrator possibly does the same every day, walks around, trying to search for her, to even see her walk by, but with no result.

"And she's here to write her name On my skin with kisses in the rain Hold my head and ease my pain In a world that's gone insane"

The narrator finally met her, in the rain, she kisses the narrator, holds him and eases his pain of not being able to find her before. The narrator doesn't care about the rest of the world ''that's gone insane'', only about her. The narrator could even be depressed.

The lyrics in this song are very special to me. I love this song.. English isn't my first language, sorry.

This song brings a tear to my eyes, more than that. It reminds of me. I am the narrator..

i liked what you said until the first paragraph, fifth line. i don't think that he is religious when he says faith. i think that he leaves the chance of finding 'the one' to fate. he has faith that fate will bring him to the right one. the rest is fine. i just disagree with that part.
