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 because maybe who your looking for is

Francis smiled softly,  sighing a little as he entered the café. He was looking a bit flustered, he usually came in in the mornings before going to the meetings for work. She smiled softly as she walked over in her usual waitress uniform, stepping over she smiled softly "Good morning Francis" she said looking at him "Good morning Mon Amie, how are you?" he asked with his usual friendly tone, although she noticed it was a little different then usual, he didn't have his usual flirty tone.  

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning Train
somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by every day
Somebody that you look at but never really see
Somewhere out there, Is Somebody


She looked at him with a bit of a raised eyebrow as she looked at him curiously "Everything okay Francis?" she asked softly as she wrote down his usual order ,coffee with just a little bit of Irish cream with French toast, strawberry's on top and plenty of whipped cream.  He looked at her with a soft smile "Ah, oui I'm fine just, thinking mon amie...Things haven't been going so well when it comes to matter of zhe 'eart" He said as he looked at her. He smiled, chuckling softly "It's fine, anything  you want to talk about?" she asked, He shook his head "Non, I wouldn't want to bother you with my problems..." he said "Nah Francis it's fine  you can tell me, you know things are all but dead in the morning like this" she said as she sat down across the way from him, since the first day they had clicked and become best friends


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 stranger's face instead,  

After a long chat with Luna, he smiled. Then again this wasn't unusual, she always had a way of cheering him up in the worst situations. However, today there was something about what she said..
'Somewhere out there, is somebody'. While after the meeting he usually takes a cab home, he decides to walk, bumping into young Cherice from across the street in his neighborhood..

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 every day
Somebody that you look at but never really see
Somewhere out there, Is Somebody

After a long talk he manages to get her number, but for some reason, even then; He cannot get her out of his mind, he wondered what it was about the waitress "Perhaps I am just letting what she said get zhe better of moi..." he said, deciding to push the thought aside...However, he decided to go again to the café for a late lunch...

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


As he walked in however, he hadn't realized she was walking past, bumping into her and having a bit of a spill...He gasped softly, feeling terrible as he looked up...Freezing for a split second as his eyes met hers...For what felt like the first time. Her emerald eyes were bright, almost as such as the blush on her face as she started to help him get cleaned up..
"Oh my gosh! Francis I'm so sorry!" she said softly, shyly as she helped him. He however, gently took her hands in his "Non, I am zhe sorry one...Zhis is my fault, as is zhe fact that I never realized before.." He said putting a hand to her cheek gently...Not caring about the mess for that split second...Her blush darkened, her heart racing "Fr-Franci-" Before she could finish he leaned in and kissed her, although it was soft, sweet; Pulling back just enough to whisper "Jet'adore...I'm only sorry I hadn't realized, my somebody...Was always right in front of me..."

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.
