He usually reads the paper
When he saw his future in her eyes instead of just another friendly face
'Cause maybe who you're lookin' for is"
That's when she says,"I've been there before but keep on lookin'
He jokes about his love life and tells her he's about ready to give up
Somebody that you look at but never really see
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by every day
Somewhere out there, there's somebody
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by every day
Somebody in the next car, somebody on the mornin' train
Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
"Somebody in the next car, somebody on the mornin' train
It's that blue-eyed girl from two floors up
Across town in a crowded elevator
Somewhere out there, there's somebody"
But today he reads a stranger's face instead
When she was always there at that diner waitin' on
A moment they both missed until that day
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by every day
Somebody that you look at but never really see
Maybe she's the one maybe he could fall in love with
He can't forget the things that waitress said
Somebody in the next car, somebody on the mornin' train
Somebody that you look at but never really see
And he wonders why he searched so long
