Somewhere in another place,
behind another someone's face
there's another human mind
thinking thoughts a lot like mine

Somewhere in somebody's home,
someone else sits all alone
wishing they could somehow find
someone else with thoughts like mine.

Somewhere in somebody's dreams,
someone hears my silent screams
understands my misery,
wishes they could comfort me.

Somehow believing someone's there
calms my dark unwholesome fear
relieves some of the loneliness,
makes the hurting somewhat less.

Somewhere in somebody's heart,
there's a space, an empty part
like one in mine that dreams can't fill
or know the way that someone will.

Somewhere someone looks for me,
hoping they may finally see
hoping soon they'll finally meet,
who or whatever makes life complete.

It seems my search is never done,
searching for this other one
Hoping someday I will see
the somebody who matches me.
