Somehow
Embracing Life's Journey: Shirley Bassey's 'Somehow' Unveils Resilience and Hope
Lyrics
You are what you are
You should embrace your true self without pretense.
It was, what it was
Accept the past for what it was, without dwelling on it.
The world didn't end
The anticipated catastrophe did not occur.
The world never does
The world continues, and life goes on.
I wake up alive
Grateful for waking up, possibly out of habit.
From habit I guess
Survival is habitual, implying resilience.
Yes, I can survive, one love more or less
Expressing the ability to endure love's comings and goings.
And sometime, somewhere, somehow
Hopeful for an undefined positive outcome in the future.
I laugh all my laughter
Reflecting on past joyous moments.
I've cried my tears now
Past sorrows have been experienced and overcome.
I want my years now
Expressing a desire to enjoy and make the most of the present.
My years
A plea to cherish the years ahead.
I've nowhere to go
A sense of being lost or having no specific destination.
That I have to be
An acknowledgment of one's obligatory presence.
There's no one I know
Feeling isolated with no familiar faces around.
Who's waiting for me
Emphasizing the absence of someone waiting for them.
There's so much inside
Awareness of untapped potential within oneself.
I still have to give
Expressing the desire to contribute and give back.
So much to be tried
Remaining open to new experiences and challenges.
A life time to live
Recognizing the vastness of time available for living.
And sometime, somewhere, somehow
Reiterating hope for a positive future outcome.
I'll have my tomorrow
Anticipating a brighter tomorrow.
Today won't stop me
Determined not to let the present hinder future aspirations.
No way to stop me
Asserting an unstoppable spirit.
Not now
Undeterred by current challenges or obstacles.
The world still holds me
Remaining engaged with life's offerings.
I want what's due now
Expressing a desire for what is rightfully deserved.
If not with you now
If not received now, hoping for love and fulfillment in the future.
Then someone, sometime, somehow
Believing in the possibility of love coming one way or another.
