Somebody
Enrique Iglesias/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like I remember you?
Do you spend your life
Going back in your mind to that time?
'Cause I, I walk the streets alone
I hate being on my own
And everyone can see that I really fell
Thinking about you with somebody else
Somebody wants you, somebody needs you
Somebody dreams about you every single night
Somebody can't breathe, without you it's lonely
Somebody hopes that one day you will see
That somebody's me, that somebody's me, yeah
How, how did we go wrong?
It was so good and now it's gone
And I pray at night that our paths soon will cross
And what we hide isn't lost
'Cause you're always right here in my thoughts
Somebody wants you, somebody needs you
Somebody dreams about you every single night
Somebody can't breathe, without you it's lonely
Somebody hopes that one day you will see
That somebody's me, oh, yeah
You will always be in my life even if I'm not in your life
'Cause you're in my memory
You, will you remember me?
And before you set me free, oh, listen please
Somebody wants you, somebody needs you
Somebody dreams about you every single night
Somebody can't breathe, without you it's lonely
Somebody hopes that someday you will see
Somebody's me, that somebody's me
That somebody's me, that somebody's me, oh, yeah
Enrique Iglesias's song Somebody's Me is a song about heartbreak and the longing for a lost love. The lyrics express the pain of being alone and the desire to be remembered by the person who broke our hearts. The chorus repeats the phrase "Somebody wants you, somebody needs you, somebody dreams about you every single night, somebody can't breathe, without you it's lonely, somebody hopes that one day you will see, that somebody's me." This stanza highlights the depth of Iglesias's feelings and suggests that he hopes to find a way back into his lover's life.
The lines "you, do you remember me? Like I remember you? Do you spend your life going back in your mind to that time?" are particularly poignant. They suggest that Iglesias's lover may have moved on, but he is still stuck in the past, reliving the memories of the time they spent together. The line "I walk the streets alone, I hate being on my own" emphasizes the loneliness that he feels and the emptiness of his life without that special someone by his side.
The second verse uses a more hopeful tone, with Iglesias praying that their paths will cross again. The phrase "And what we hide isn't lost, 'cause you're always right here in my thoughts" suggests that he still holds onto the hope that their love will be rekindled. However, the final lines "You will always be in my life even if I'm not in your life, 'cause you're in my memory" show that he has come to terms with the fact that his lover may not feel the same way about him anymore.
Overall, the song captures the heartache, longing, and the hope that often follow the end of a relationship. It is a relatable anthem for anyone who has been through a breakup and still yearns for their lost love.
