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,
That's when she says "I've been there before,
But keep on looking cause maybe who you're looking for is"


Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train

Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right 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
It's 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 right 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'd both missed until that day
When he saw 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 waiting on


Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train

Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at but never really see
Somewhere out there ?,

Oh, Somewhere out there is somebody
