somebody to love
Axel Black & White Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the truth is found to be lies
And all the joy within you dies

Don't you want somebody to love?
Don't you need somebody to love?
Wouldn't you love somebody to love?
You better find somebody to love
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
I say your eyes may look like his
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
I say your eyes may look like his

Don't you want somebody to love?
Don't you need somebody to love?
Wouldn't you want somebody to love?
You better find somebody to love

Yeah, but in your head, baby
I'm afraid you don't know where it is
Baby, are dead, yes and
Your mind, your mind is so full of red

Don't you want somebody to love?
Don't you need somebody to love?
Wouldn't you love somebody to love?
You better find somebody to love

Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
I say your eyes may look like his
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
I say your eyes may look like his
Don't you want somebody to love?
Don't you need somebody to love?




Wouldn't you want somebody to love?
You better find somebody to love

Overall Meaning

The song "Somebody to Love" by Axel Black & White is a reflection on the search for love and companionship amidst the trials and disappointments of life. The opening lyrics express a sense of disillusionment with the world as it is and the pain that comes from discovering that what one once believed to be true is in fact false. The repetition of the phrase "Don't you want somebody to love?" emphasizes the need for human connection and a desire to find someone who can provide solace and comfort in difficult times.


The chorus of the song repeats the refrain of "Don't you want somebody to love?" This repetition emphasizes the central message of the song and underscores the importance of finding meaningful relationships in life. The lyrics also touch on the idea that sometimes people are unable to see what is best for them and may need help discovering where to find love.


The song's lyrics are accompanied by a bouncy yet wistful guitar melody that captures the emotional tone of the song. The overall effect of the song is a mix of vulnerability, yearning, and hope.
