“Somebody Loves Somebody” by Celine Dion
“Somebody Loves Somebody” is about Celine Dion’s honest thoughts about the status of her relationship. She attempts to prevent the relationship from going in the wrong direction by likening it to the widely accepted expectations of people in love.
In the song, the lovers appear to have opposing views of how a person should behave in a relationship. While Dion wants to avoid an argument completely, her lover wants to speak his mind. She tells him not to confront her, even though the relationship is in a shaky state. Reason being that, the singer believes that her partner is not acting the way people who love others do. She further states that he keeps playing games and takes things lightly; something other people cannot put up with. She also doesn’t believe that her lover really wants to keep the relationship.
The singer however maintains that since they are in love, they should work hard together and treat each other like people who actually love each other.
