Somebody

At 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 tells her he's 'bout ready to give up

That's when she says,"I've been there before

But keep on lookin' 'cause maybe who you're lookin' for is..."

Somebody in the next car

Somebody on the morning 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 can't 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 car

Somebody on the morning 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

A moment they'd both missed until that day

When he saw his future in her eyes

Instead of just another friendly face

And he wonders why he searched so long

When she was always there at that diner waiting on

Somebody in the next car

Somebody on the morning train

Somebody in the coffee shop

That you walk right on by everyday

Somebody that you look at

But never really see

Somewhere out there is somebody
