Somebody New Will Be Coming Along
Love's Carousel of Change
Lyrics
Somebody new will be coming along
Anticipation of a new person entering the speaker's life
Somebody new will be coming along
Reiteration of the expectation of someone new coming
Before the last one is good and gone
Emphasizing the timing, before the current relationship ends
Somebody new will be coming along
Repeated anticipation of a new individual arriving
Somebody new will be coming along
Restating the likelihood of someone new coming soon
You know I've been married a time or two
Acknowledgment of the speaker's multiple marriages
Well, I've heard it said that this is true
Reference to a common saying about remarriage
And who knows I might do it again
Contemplating the possibility of getting married again
Which brings to mind something my friend
Referring to a friend's advice on the matter
I've had women trouble before
Admitting previous difficulties with women
I know what you mean don't say no more
Requesting understanding without further details
And I could use son some advice
Expressing a need for advice from the friend
But take it from the man who's done it twice
Offering advice based on the speaker's experience of being married twice
Somebody new will be coming along
Repeating the expectation of a new person entering the speaker's life
Somebody new will be coming along
Reiterating the anticipation of someone new coming
Before the last one is good and gone
Highlighting the timing, before the current relationship ends
Somebody new will be coming along
Reiteration of the expectation of a new individual arriving
Somebody new will be coming along
Restating the likelihood of someone new coming soon
Well, I think about leaving every day
Contemplating the idea of leaving the current relationship
But something always gets in your way
Obstacles preventing the speaker from leaving
I've tried to go a thousand times
Past attempts to end the relationship
You've got ways of changing your mind
Highlighting the partner's ability to change the speaker's mind
If I let her world fall all apart
Predicting the potential impact of the speaker leaving
And I think she'd die of a broken heart
Concern for the partner's emotional well-being
Without me what would she do
Speculating on the partner's dependence on the speaker
My friend don't let them worry you
Reassuring the friend not to worry about the situation
Cause somebody new will be coming along
Repeating the anticipation of a new person entering the speaker's life
Somebody new will be coming along
Reiterating the expectation of someone new coming
Before the last one is good and gone
Highlighting the timing, before the current relationship ends
Somebody new will be coming along
Reiteration of the expectation of a new individual arriving
Somebody new will be coming along
Restating the likelihood of someone new coming soon
Somebody new will be coming along
Concluding the song with a final repetition of the anticipation
