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 lookin' Cause maybe who you're lookin' for is
Somebody in the next car Somebody on the mornin' 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 mornin' 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 A moment they 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 waitin' on
Somebody in the next car Somebody on the mornin' 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
