Song Demo: “Somebody”

Unrequited love is an ordeal that almost everyone, at one time or another, has suffered through. It’s even worse when you know you don’t have a chance because the person with whom you are in love has a crush on somebody else. For either a male or female singer.

“Somebody”

 

I’ve been biding my time, living a lie

And praying for my chance

But it seems to me pure futility

We won’t have that romance

I’ve tried all I know, haven’t given up hope

But I’m just a casual friend

Whenever we meet, I geta peck on the cheek

To last till I see her again

 

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

 

A quick cup of coffee is all she spares me

As I dream and I scheme and I plan

At the party tonight she’ll be at his side

Laughing and holding his hand

 

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

 

How long does it take to get over the pain

And be back to where I was at

It won’t go away I can’t make it change

She’s his, there it is, and that’s that

 

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

I’m just somebody who’s in love with somebody

Who’s in love with somebody else

She’s in love with somebody else
