Somebody Love Me
Yearning Melody: Craving Love and Connection in Michael W. Smith's 'Somebody Love Me'
Lyrics
Counting every moment
Expressing the act of keeping track of each passing moment.
Biding all my time
Waiting patiently and using time wisely.
Standing out here on my own
Feeling isolated and self-reliant, standing alone.
Searching for that someone
In search of a person who can mend a broken heart.
To heal this heart of mine
Desiring someone to bring emotional healing.
And keep me from being alone
Seeking companionship to avoid loneliness.
But when will it be
Pondering when the right person will come.
And how will I know
Questioning how to recognize the right one.
I don't want to wait here forever
Expressing a desire not to wait indefinitely.
Somebody love me
Yearning for someone to love the speaker.
Come and carry me away
Inviting someone to rescue and take the speaker away.
Somebody need me
Seeking to be needed by someone.
To be the blue in their grey
Wishing to bring color and joy to someone's life.
Somebody want me
Desiring to be wanted in a specific way.
The way I've always dreamed it could be
Envisioning an ideal love scenario.
Won't somebody love me, love me
Reiterating the plea for someone to love the speaker.
I'm waiting for somebody
Anticipating the arrival of the right person.
To dance across the floor
Waiting for a dance partner and a romantic connection.
Sweeping me off of my feet
Imagining a romantic scenario of being swept off one's feet.
I'm looking for the right one
Searching for the perfect person to open up to.
To open up that door
Longing for a tender and comforting experience.
And offer me a tender retreat
Describing the desire for a gentle and peaceful escape.
It's like wanting to sing
Comparing the desire for love to the need for a song to sing.
But needing a song
Expressing a longing for the right moment to experience love.
When will I hear the music playing
Wondering when the perfect romantic moment will arrive.
Somebody love me
Repeating the plea for someone to love and rescue the speaker.
Come and carry me away
Echoing the desire to be carried away by love.
Somebody need me
Expressing the need to be essential to someone.
To be the blue in their grey
Aspiring to be a source of happiness and comfort for someone.
Somebody want me
Desiring to be wanted and loved in a specific manner.
The way I've always dreamed it could be
Envisioning an idealized version of love.
Won't somebody love me, love me
Reiterating the plea for someone to love the speaker deeply.
