I've Got Somebody
Embracing Love's Fulfillment: Tanya Tucker's "I've Got Somebody
Lyrics
Everybody take a big long listen I've got somebody to love
Everybody, pay attention; I have found someone to love.
Everybody take a big long listen cause I've got somebody to love
Reiterating the message: Listen up, everyone; I'm in love.
I used to worry bout tomorrow but tomorrow never came
I used to be concerned about the future, but it never unfolded as expected.
Somebody with a crystal ball said you'll never be happy at all
Someone claiming to have foresight predicted my perpetual unhappiness.
Well that's one point for me and none for the ball
Contrasting the prediction, I've proven it wrong, gaining a point for myself.
I've got somebody to love I've got somebody to take care of
I am in a loving relationship; I have someone to care for.
I've got somebody to love
Reiteration of having found someone special to love.
Everybody take a big long listen I've got somebody to love
Emphasizing again: I've found love, and everyone should be aware.

[Instrumental break]
I used to comb my hair for hours tryin' to make it look just right
Reflecting on the past, I used to spend hours grooming myself.
I used to make fancy plans just to find someone and have a one night stand
I made elaborate plans to seek temporary companionship.
Well that's all over now and here's the reason why
Announcing the end of those actions, attributing it to finding true love.
I've got somebody to love...
Reaffirmation: I've found somebody to love.
I've got somebody to love...
Repetition for emphasis: I've got somebody to love.
I've got somebody to love...
Continued emphasis on having found love.
