Somebody To Love
???? (????) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I stood up for you when you married
I thought you were one lucky guy
You had the world in your pocket
She had that look of love in her eye

You called me at one in the morning
To tell me what you're going through
It's not workin' out like you wanted
I'm not the one to be telling this to

Cause brother when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love, yes, I know she's somebody's love

I've watched her raisin' your children
She was there when the going got tough
Just when she needed your loving
You strung her along on just barely enough

So brother, when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love

And if I had your luck
This time you'd be gone, she'd be mine
All of my friends would say
There goes that lucky guy

Brother, when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love





Yes, I know she's somebody's love
Oh, I know she's somebody's love

Overall Meaning

In this song, the singer is speaking to a man who is unhappy in his marriage with a woman that the singer deeply respects and cherishes. The singer has seen how dedicated the woman is to their family, sticking by her husband through thick and thin. The man calls the singer in the middle of the night, and shares his displeasure at how his marriage is not working out like he hoped. However, despite the man's complaints, the singer knows that the woman is deserving of love and respect, more than just barely enough. The singer acknowledges that she is somebody's love and that she means so much more to someone else.


The song shows the singer's loyalty and respect to the woman and her family. It also highlights how the man's perception of his marriage is not the same as what he perceives, as he sees the woman as an inconvenience, whereas the singer sees a valuable individual. The lyrics encourage the listener to appreciate those who dedicate themselves to their families and understand their worth in someone else's life.

Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself)
Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord, what you're doing to me? (Yeah, yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord
Somebody (somebody), ooh, somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Yeah
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work 'til I ache my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay (goes home)
All on my own (goes home on his own)
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray (praise the Lord)
'Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody (somebody), ooh, somebody
(Please) can anybody find me somebody to love?
Every day (every day), I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense
(He's got) I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, somebody, ooh (somebody)
Anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I'm okay, I'm alright (he's alright, he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat (yeah, yeah)
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love (find me)
Find me somebody to love (find me, find)
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love, love, love (ooh, find me, find me)

Find me somebody to love (ooh)
Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody
Somebody find me
Somebody find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Ooh
