Look What I Found
Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm alone in my house
I'm out on the town
I'm at the bottom of the bottle
I've been knockin' them down
I can't get back up on my feet
But look what I found
Look what I found
Another piece of my heart
Just layin' on the ground
Another foggy day
I'm looking for a light
And my only prayer
Is working tonight
I can't get myself out of bed
Hear these voices in my head like a song
But look what I found
Somebody who loves me
Look what I found
Somebody who carry
'Round a piece of my heart
Just layin' on the ground
When I met you I was blown to pieces
Heart all over the floor
Ever since you put me back together
I can't believe it, can't believe it, uh!
Look what you found, yeah, baby
Look what I found
Someone who carry 'round a piece of my heart
Look what I found, woo, c'mon
Look what I found
Somebody who loves me
Look what we found
Someone who carry 'round a piece of my heart, heart
Just layin' on the ground
The opening lines of "Look What I Found" by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper express the different states of mind that the singer finds herself in. She is either alone in her house, out on the town or at the bottom of the bottle. She is feeling low and trying to escape into another world by drinking. At this point, she is missing something significant from her life - a piece of her heart which is lying on the ground. She feels lost and unable to find the strength to get back up. This state of mind is reinforced by the voices in her head that she compares to a song.
The second verse shows the singer continuing her search for the missing piece of her heart. She feels demotivated and struggles to get out of bed. The only thing that keeps her going is the hope that someone, someday will brighten her life. The bridge explains how the singer was broken into pieces when she met the other person. She was not in a good place emotionally, and it showed as her heart was literally all over the floor. But the other person helped her pick up those shattered pieces and put them back together. The chorus then brings back the theme of finding that missing piece of her heart, which she finally finds in her lover.
Overall, the song is about finding someone who completes you while being at your worst. The song speaks of the struggle of feeling alone and how having someone who loves you can bring back the missing piece of your heart.
