At a diner down on broadway they make small talk
when she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup
he jokes about his love life
and tells her he's about ready to give up
thats when she says i've been there before
but keep on looking because maybe who your looking for is
Somebody in the next car
somebody on the morning train
somebody in the coffee shop that you walk by everyday
somebody that you look at but never really see
somewhere out there is somebody
Across town in a crowded elevator
he can't forget the things that waitress said
he usually reads the paper
but today he reads a strangers face instead
its that blue eyed girl from two floors up
maybe she's the one
maybe he could fall in love with
Somebody in the next car
somebody on the morning train
somebody in the coffee shop that you walk by everyday
somebody that you look at but never really see
somewhere out there is somebody
Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
the moment they both missed until that day
when he saws his future in her eyes
instead of just another friendly face
and he wonders why he searched so long
when she was always there at that diner waitin on
Somebody in the next car
somebody on the morning train
somebody in the coffee shop that you walk by everyday
somebody that you look at but never really see
somewhere out there
oh somewhere out there is somebody
