Someone New
Hozier Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You knew who I was with every step that I ran to you
Only blue or black days
Electing strange perfections in any stranger I choose
Would things be easier if there was a right way?
Honey, there is no right way
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
There's an art to life's distraction
To somehow escape the burning wait
The art of scraping through
Some like to imagine
The dark caress of someone else, I guess any thrill will do
Would things be easier if there was a right way?
Honey, there is no right way
And so I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I wake at the first cringe of morning
And my heart's already sinned
How pure, how sweet a love, Aretha
That you would pray for him
'Cause God knows I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day
Love with every stranger, the stranger the better
Love with every stranger, the stranger the better
Love with every stranger, the stranger the better
Love with every stranger, the stranger the better
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh, a little bit
Every day with someone new
In "Someone New," Hozier explores the emotions of falling in love with new people daily. The song begins with the line, "Go take this the wrong way, You knew who I was with every step that I ran to you." This line suggests that the person he's talking to knows that he falls in love with someone new every day. The second verse of the song talks about how difficult life can be, and how distractions can help a person escape the weight of the world. The song continues with lines where he suggests that he falls in love with strangers because "the stranger, the better."
Overall, the song is about the idea of falling in love with someone new every day, even if it's just a little bit. It's about the excitement and thrill of falling in love with someone new, and how that feeling can help distract a person from the difficulties of life. There's a sense of freedom in the song, as Hozier suggests that there's no right way to live or love.

Go take this the wrong way
Don't misinterpret what I'm about to say
You knew who I was with every step that I ran to you
You were aware of my personality when I came to you
Only blue or black days
Depression takes over me
Electing strange perfections is in any stranger I choose
I have a tendency to fall for people who are not good for me
Would things be easier if there was a right way
Is there any perfect way to approach love?
Honey, there is no right way
There is no perfect way to approach love
And so I fall in love just a little ol' little bit
Every day with someone new
I tend to fall for a new person every day, even if it's just a bit
There's an art to life's distractions
It takes skill to distract oneself from life's struggles
To somehow escape the burning weight
To find a way to escape from the weight of problems and stress
The art of scraping through
The way of barely making it through life's challenges
Some like to imagine
The dark caress of someone else I guess any thrill will do
Some are drawn to the thrill of infidelity, even if it's just in their imagination
I wake, at the first cringe of morning
And my heart's already sinned
I wake up with guilt in my heart every day
How pure, how sweet the love beneath it yeah
You would pray for him
How pure and sweet the love for the one I am cheating on, you would pray for him
'Cause God knows I fall
In love just a little ol' little bit
Every day with someone new
I tend to fall for someone new every day, even if it's just a little bit, and God knows it too
Love with every stranger, the stranger the better
I tend to fall in love with strangers, especially if they are mysterious or unfamiliar

Don't take this the wrong way,
You knew who I was with every step that I ran to you,
Only blue or black days,
Electing strange perfections in any stranger I choose.
Would things be easier if there was a right way?
Honey, there is no right way.
And so I fall in love just a little, oh a little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little, oh a little bit every day with someone new

I fall in love just a little, oh a little bit every day with someone new
There's an art to life's distractions,
To somehow escape the burning weight, the art of scraping through,
Some like to imagine,
The dark caress of someone else, I guess any thrill will do

I see so many comments about this song being about lonliness, but I think its about wordless human connection. Like when you pass by a cafe and see someone so engrossed in a book and you feel love for that person, even if you know nothing about them. You pass a woman with bright pink hair and a a grocery list scribbled on her arm and you feel love. Its random but its so human. Thats the feeling I get from this song.
@lindakirchof283
exactly, i agree<3
