The Eternal Quest for Love and Completion

Air Supply's song "Someone" delves into the profound and timeless quest for love and emotional fulfillment. The lyrics open with a reflection on the initial experience of love, questioning whether it met the expectations built over a thousand lonely years. This sets the stage for a journey from solitude to a state of enchantment, where the touch of a loved one brings a sense of completeness and dispels the shadows of the past. The imagery of a gypsy becoming complete suggests a wandering soul finally finding its home, a powerful metaphor for finding true love.

The chorus emphasizes the presence of a significant other who walks beside the narrator, waits for their commitment, and lives within them, providing all the emotional sustenance they need. This person is not just a partner but a source of strength and comfort, someone to lean on in times of need. The repetition of the chorus underscores the importance of this relationship and the deep emotional connection that defines it. The desire to stay in this state of love forever highlights the longing for permanence in a world where everything is transient.

The second verse introduces the idea of reflection and purification. The narrator gazes into a secret pool, symbolizing introspection and the cleansing of past battles from their soul. The mention of the "bride of spring" and a vow of protection suggests a renewal and a commitment to nurturing this newfound love. The day that "never shall grow old" signifies an eternal moment, a timeless bond that defies the passage of time. The song concludes with the breaking of silence and the liberation of the blackbird, symbolizing freedom and the power of the loved one's voice to bring clarity and purpose to the narrator's life.
