Gotta Be Somebody
Nickelback Lyrics

This time I wonder what it feels like
Reflecting on the desire to find true love

To find the one in this life
To find the perfect partner

The one we all dream of
The person that everyone imagines as being their ideal partner

But dreams just aren't enough
Simply wishing isn't sufficient to find true love

So I'll be waiting for the real thing
Waiting for true love and not settling for something less meaningful

I'll know it by the feeling
The internal feeling of knowing when someone is the one

The moment when we're meeting
The precise instant when two individuals who are meant to be in each other's lives encounter one another

Will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
The scenario will be so perfect that it would seem like a movie

So I'll be holdin' my breath
Anticipation for the moment of true love

Right up to the end
Never giving up the search until the very end

Until that moment when
Once the perfect individual is discovered/hoped for

I find the one that I'll spend forever with
The certainty of having discovered the one to spend eternity with

'Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
People don't want to be the last to discover true love

'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Everyone hopes for someone to care for them deeply

Someone to love with my life in their hands.
Seeking someone who can be trusted completely with your life and love

There's gotta be somebody for me like that.
An unbreakable belief in the idea that there is someone out there for everyone

'Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
No one wants to navigate life alone

And everyone wants to know they're not alone.
People desire companionship and a sense of belonging

Somebody else that feels the same somewhere.
Someone who shares similar hopes and desires exists out there

There's gotta be somebody for me out there.
Believing in the possibility of discovering that ideal someone, the perfect partner

Tonight, out on the street out in the moonlight
A moment of hopeful anticipation

And damn it this feels too right
A feeling of certainty about meeting that person

It's just like deja vu
A familiarity of having been here before, meeting this person before

Me standin' here with you
The feeling of being with the right person at the right moment

Could this be the end?
An uncertainty of whether this moment could lead to finding the one, or if it is just a fleeting possibility

Is it that moment when
Searching for and wondering if this is the moment of meeting the one

Make sure you're holdin' on
Encouragement to hold onto hope, never give up the search, and keep in mind that love may come when least expected

'Cause it could be the one, the one you're waiting on
It is essential to keep believing in the possibility of finding that perfect partner

There's gotta be somebody for me.
The firm belief in finding the ideal partner

Oh, nobody wants to go it on their own
The desire to discover a true companion and not lead a solitary and lonely life

And everyone wants to know they're not alone.
A fundamental human need to have companionship and the knowledge that someone is there for us

Somebody else that feels the same somewhere.
Believing in the existence of someone out there with similar hopes and dreams

There's gotta be somebody for me out there.
Staunchly believing in discovering our dream partner
