Somebody New
Billy Ray Cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wish you all the best, love, love and happiness, love
And everything you'd ever want to have, see or do
And from the bottom of my heart
I hope you never find somebody new

And anyone who tells you that broken hearts mend easy
Has never ever loved the way that I have loved you
As long as there's a chance for us
I hope you never find somebody new

[Chorus]
You have not convinced me yet to go
My heart still says there's something going on
And until I know we're finally through
I hope you never find somebody new

I'm acting like an actor, dancing like a dancer
But when the curtain falls I always call out for you
As long as I still love you
I hope you never find somebody new

[Chorus]





I hope you never find somebody new
Somebody new, somebody new

Overall Meaning

The poignant lyrics of Billy Ray Cyrus's "Somebody New" express a feeling of deep heartbreak and longing. The song is a declaration of love to someone who has left the singer's life. The lyrics convey an earnest wish for the best for the person who is loved, but also a fervent hope that they never find someone new to love. "I wish you all the best, love, love and happiness, love, and everything you'd ever want to have, see or do," the song begins, expressing the singer's desire for his love's happiness, but as the song progresses, it becomes increasingly clear that the singer still harbors strong feelings of attachment and devotion to the object of his love.


The second verse reinforces this sense of unbreakable connection, with the singer insisting that broken hearts don't mend easily when love is as real and intense as theirs was. The chorus repeats the sentiment: "And until I know we're finally through, I hope you never find somebody new." The final verse is a subtle acknowledgment of the fact that the singer is still struggling to come to terms with his lover's departure, despite his attempts to put on a brave face. "I'm acting like an actor, dancing like a dancer, but when the curtain falls I always call out for you," he sings, revealing his vulnerability and his passionate yearning for the one who got away.


Overall, "Somebody New" is a bittersweet song of heartbreak, regret, and a deep desire to hold on to the love that has been lost. The lyrics are both sad and hopeful, and will resonate with anyone who has experienced the pain of a broken heart.

Shame on you Billy Ray Cyrus, selling out your fans to Lil Nas X to make satanic, bastard production music.

A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

Deuteronomy 23:2 

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

John 10:1

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Matthew 5:17

Check their birth certificates, and that of their grandparents to ensure that you do not get tricked!

Marie Mccarter

He sure can sing and so easy on the eyes, I guess a lot of us have felt like this in our love life💞👍

One hit wonder my ass. Anyone who says that isn't a fan of music. And they need ears. Achy Breaky Heart did so damn good no way he could ever top that. But this man has a huge catalog of amazing beautiful country music. And no those fools who think he's new because of Old Town Road are those same idiots who had to clue who Ozzy Osborne was on Post Malone. Thank good I love music and this song has meaning to millions.

Phoebe Fugate
