Lyrics Somebody To Love

Somebody to Love by Queen reflects Freddie Mercurys feelings on love and loneliness. Inspired by gospel, Mercury aimed to evoke Aretha Franklins style in the song. Recorded for the A Day at the Races album, it showcases complex vocal harmonies work.


Oh, each morning I get up, I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have to spend all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord

Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me
somebody to love?

I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray (praise the Lord)
Till the tears run down from my eyes

Lord somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (please)
Can anybody find me
somebody to love?

(He works hard)
everyday
I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah ...

Somebody (somebody), Somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me
somebody to love?
(Anybody find me someone to love)

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I'm ok, I'm alright (he's alright)
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free Lord!

Find me somebody to love, find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love, find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love, find me somebody to love
Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody,
Can anybody find me
somebody to ...
... love ...
Find me somebody to love
Find me ...
