Someone
Friction & McLean Lyrics

There's a saying old says that love is blind
There's a common phrase that is used to describe the irrationality of love.

Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
Despite the irrationality of love, we are often advised to actively search for it.

So I'm going to seek a certain lad Ive had in mind
I have a particular person in mind that I am going to search for.

Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
I have been searching for him, but have not found him yet.

Hes the big affair I cannot forget
This person is a significant event in my life that I cannot forget.

Only man I ever think of with regret
He is the only person that I think of with remorse.

Id like to add his initial to my monogram
I would like to incorporate his name into my personal emblem.

Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Can someone guide me to where this person may be? I feel lost without him.

There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I have a strong desire to see this person.

I hope that he turns out to be
I have high hopes that he will be the person I am searching for.

Someone who'll watch over me
I am looking for someone who will take care of me.

I'm a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I feel vulnerable and lost, like a small lamb wandering in the wilderness.

I know I could always be good
I am capable of being a good person and partner.

Although he may not be the man some
Even though some people may not consider him to be an attractive or desirable partner.

Girls think of as handsome
Many girls may not think of him as conventionally handsome.

To my heart he carries the key
To my heart, he is the only one who has the power to unlock and open it.

Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Can you please ask him to hurry up and come to me?

Follow my lead, oh, how I need
I am taking the lead and hoping he will follow, as I am desperate for his presence.

Someone to watch over me
Once I have found this person, I hope he can watch over me and keep me safe and cared for.
