(Someone for me)
(Someone for me)
I'm here alone on a Friday night
Waiting here beside the phone
The TV, radio, and me
Really ain't been getting along
I wish that I could find a way
To party to the break of day
And there I'd be sure to meet
The guy that would be special to me
Then momma comes and asks me
Why I am dreaming, sitting alone
Why not go out and have some fun
It's the only way I'll ever
Find someone for me
While I am young and seventeen
[Chorus:]
Someone for me (someone for me)
I've got to find someone
Someone (someone for me)
I've got to find someone
Now there's a party down at Angie's house
With people packed against the walls
I'm sitting in a corner here
Trying to make sense of it all
And when I least expect it
Meeting a guy I see in my dreams
Here he is walking up to me
And asking if I'd like to come and dance with him
I think I found someone for me
[Chorus]
I need somebody for me
I need somebody for me, someone
And so I'm finding out that
Dreams you believe in, can come to be
And now I'm looking up to find that joy
And happiness can come to you and me
I actually found someone for me
[Chorus]

Whitney Elizabeth Houston, nota semplicemente come Whitney Houston (Newark, New Jersey, 9 agosto 1963 – Beverly Hills, 11 febbraio 2012), è stata una cantante e attrice statunitense. Considerata una delle voci più iconiche e talentuose di tutti i tempi, spesso soprannominata "The Voice" per la potenza, purezza e perfezione del suo canto. Houston ha raggiunto il successo internazionale negli anni '80, aprendo nuovi mercati alle cantanti afroamericane. I suoi primi due album, *Whitney Houston* (1985) e *Whitney* (1987), sono tra gli album femminili più venduti di sempre, dominando le classifiche mondiali, in particolare la Billboard Hot 100, dove ha piazzato sette singoli consecutivi al primo posto, battendo il record di cinque appartenente a Diana Ross. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)", "Saving All My Love for You", "How Will I Know" e "Greatest Love of All". Houston ha anche recitato in film come *The Bodyguard* (1992), che le ha conferito un Golden Globe per la canzone "I Will Always Love You". La sua carriera è stata segnata da successi straordinari, ma anche da momenti difficili legati a problemi personali e di dipendenza. La sua scomparsa prematura nel 2012 ha lasciato un vuoto innegabile nel mondo della musica.
