Dear teachers!!
From the Broadway show "Oliver!"
Words and Original Music by Lionel Bart
Where is Love?
Does it fall from skies above?
Is it underneath the willow tree
that I've been dreaming of?
Where is she,
Who I close my eyes to see?
Will I ever know the sweet "hello"
That's meant for only me?
Who can say where she may hide?
Must I travel far and wide,
Till I am beside the someone who,
I can mean something to?
Where, where is love?
Every night I kneel and pray
Let tomorrow be the day,
When I see the face of someone
Who I can mean something to.
Where, where is Love?
----->
Till I am beside the someone who,
I can mean something to?
I am not qute sure "I can mean something to."
Does "I can mean something to" mean "I can mean something to myself"?
Thank you in advance. |

I want love. I want to mean something to someone else = I want to be important / meaningful to someone else. Who might that be, the person I could mean something to / the person to whom I could be meaningful? _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb |
