Somewhere in the Night
Chasing Shadows of Love in the Night
Lyrics
Somewhere in the night
Expressing a desire or hope for a connection or companionship during the nighttime.
There must be someone for me
Believing that there is a suitable person destined for the singer in the night.
Somewhere in the night
Reiterating the idea that somewhere, a compatible person exists during the night.
Who knows, where somewhere may be
Contemplating the uncertainty of the specific location where the potential soulmate might be found.
Across the way
Considering various possibilities, perhaps across the way or even beyond distant stars.
Or maybe, way beyond the distant star
Exploring the idea that the person sought could be found in a distant place.
How I wish, I knew
Expressing a strong desire to know the identity and location of the potential partner.
Just where and who you are
Expressing the wish to know who and where the sought-after person is.
Somewhere in a dream
Imagining finding the ideal person within a dream.
I find her here by my side
Visualizing the presence of the desired person when dreaming.
Then when I awake
However, the dream dissipates upon waking.
My dream drifts out with the tide
Expressing the ephemeral nature of the dream as it fades like the tide.
My lonely heart keeps saying to me
Acknowledging the persistent feeling of loneliness in the singer's heart.
"No, this doesn't seem right
Internal dialogue questioning the current situation.
There must be someone
Believing that there must be someone, somewhere, to alleviate the loneliness.
Somewhere in the night"
Reiterating the hope for finding companionship in the night.
Somewhere in a dream
Repeating the dream scenario of finding the desired person.
I find her here by my side
Re-emphasizing the dream of having the ideal person by the singer's side.
Then when I awake
Similar to lines 13-14, the dream fades upon waking.
My dream drifts out with the tide
Reiterating the transitory nature of dreams, comparable to the ebbing tide.
My lonely heart keeps saying to me
Reiteration of the persistent loneliness felt by the singer.
"No, this doesn't seem right
Internal questioning of the current emotional state.
There must be someone
Expressing the conviction that there must be someone to alleviate the loneliness.
Somewhere in the night"
Reaffirming the hope and belief in finding companionship during the night.
