Somebody Loves Me
Max Kortlander Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When this world began
It was Heaven's plan
There should be a girl for every single man.
To my great regret

Someone has upset
Heaven's pretty progamme for we've never met.
I'm clutching at straws, just because
I may meet himher yet.

Somebody loves me, I wonder who,
I wonder who heshe can be.
Somebody loves me, I wish I knew,




Who can heshe be worries me.
For every boygirl who passes me I shout,

Overall Meaning

"Hey, maybe you were meant to be my love!"


The lyrics of the song "Somebody Loves Me" speak about the concept of fate and destiny in love. The song talks about how the creation of the world and everything in it was based on the idea that there would be a perfect match for every single person in the world. However, even though this was Heaven's plan, the singer has not been able to find his/her perfect match yet. The frustration of not having found that special someone is palpable in the lyrics, as the singer wonders who that person might be and where they might be hiding. The singer also expresses the fear of not knowing who that person could be, as the uncertainty of the situation is unsettling.


The idea of destiny is further emphasized in the lyrics when the singer talks about shouting out to every person who passes by, hoping that they might be the one meant to be their love. This kind of desperate search for love is a common theme in many songs, but this song puts a unique twist on it by emphasizing the idea of fate and destiny. The lyrics suggest that no matter how hard the singer tries, they will never really know who that special someone could be until they are brought together by fate.
