Someone
Someone (Feat. Mclean) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a saying old says that love is blind
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
So I'm going to seek a certain lad Ive had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet

Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
Id like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
Someone who'll watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Wont you tell him please to put on some speed




Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

Overall Meaning

The song "Someone" by Someone (Feat. Mclean) explores the universal human desire for love and companionship. The opening lines "There's a saying old says that love is blind, Still, we're often told, seek and ye shall find" suggest that despite the challenges and uncertainties of seeking love, it is still a necessary and ultimately rewarding pursuit. The singer is on a mission to find her ideal partner, whom she describes as the "big affair I cannot forget" and the "only man I ever think of with regret." She longs to add his initial to her monogram and refers to herself as a "lost lamb" in need of a shepherd to guide her through life.


The chorus offers a plea for this elusive someone to appear, with the singer hoping that he will "turn out to be someone who'll watch over me." She acknowledges that beauty is often in the eye of the beholder, declaring that "although he may not be the man some girls think of as handsome, to my heart he carries the key." She is eager for him to catch up to her, asking that he "put on some speed" and "follow my lead." Ultimately, the song speaks to the power of human connection and the hope that we all have for finding someone to look after us and guide us through life's ups and downs.

Maybe this is crazy
Crazy just to wonder
Wonder if there's someone meant for you
Sunshine when it's raining
Raining over lovers
Lovers in the shade of color blue
Is there someone to give it all?
We all wanna be someone's
Wanna be someone's someone
With somebody we can't live without
We all wanna be someone's
Wanna be someone's someone
With someone we can't live without
So completely perfect
Perfect with no reasons
Reasons are for people you meant to lose
Someone full of secrets
Secrets in the shadows
Shadows with excuses breaking through
But is there someone to give it all?
We all wanna be someone's
Wanna be someone's someone
With somebody we can't live without
We all wanna be someone's
Wanna be someone's someone
With someone we can't live without
Someone we can't live without
(Somebody we can't live without)
Someone we can't live without

@#MissMochiMooMoo Unless we are talking about mentally defficient people, yes, you can learn languages easily.

People just assume they can't. Be it laziness, no idea how to learn, or bad teachers... Language isn't a hard science. It's not Physics where everything has to be perfect.

And most of them come from the same originator, Latin.

Those that don't, have a crapton of loan words from English and French, which came from Latin.

Same goes for East Asian languages. Once you learn Korean, Japanese comes easy. Once you know those two, you can passably use Chinese.

Ham Gom

@ali they are popular if you consider how many groups there are in the k-pop industry. They might be underappreciated but not unpopular. But I can still agree with you - gp is sleeping on them -.-

I swear they've got the best English songs out of all Kpop group.

Honestly I’m so sad. This was when Mx was really suppose to pop off. They had this great English album, they had a collab with Jaguar, they were going to get the worldwide fame they deserved. I’m still so incredibly proud of them. I love the music that has come out since. But we all know they deserved so much more.
