🎵 SOMEONE WAS WAITING FOR ME
Ian Brook Music. Ian Brook. PG-rated.
Somewhere between feeling forgotten and finding where you belong, there is a story waiting to be told.
“Someone Was Waiting for Me” is an emotional cinematic song about a young boy who has spent much of his life believing that nobody wants him and that he has nowhere to call home.
He travels through loneliness, uncertainty and the feeling of being forgotten, until one day he discovers something he never truly believed possible:
Someone was waiting for him.
The song is about hope, belonging, unconditional love and the beautiful moment when someone who has felt lost finally discovers that they have a place in the world.
“I was never nobody,
I was only lost awhile.
Somebody was waiting...
And now somebody’s here.
I’m home.”
Performed as a solo vocal by Ian Brook, the recording combines an intimate youthful voice with cinematic orchestral music, allowing the story and emotion to remain at the heart of the production.

Somebody Was Waiting for Me, lyrics
Verse 1
I remember standing by the window,
Watching headlights disappear,
Wondering if somebody was coming,
Wondering if they ever cared.
There were children all around me,
But I still felt all alone,
Every night I whispered softly,
“Is there somewhere I belong?”
Pre-Chorus
I thought nobody knew me,
I thought nobody cared,
I thought I was forgotten
And nobody was there.
Chorus
But somebody was waiting,
Somewhere beyond my tears,
Somebody kept believing
I'd find my way someday.
Somebody knew my name,
Somebody knew my heart,
And even when I couldn't see them,
They'd never been far apart.
Verse 2
I travelled through a thousand rooms,
With different beds and different doors,
I learned to keep my dreams inside me,
I stopped expecting anything more.
Then one afternoon they told me,
“There is someone here for you.”
I was frightened to believe it,
But somehow hoped it might be true.
Pre-Chorus
For the first time someone held me,
For the first time I could stay,
And the little boy who'd lost his way
Could finally hear somebody say—
Chorus
“Somebody was waiting,
Somewhere beyond your tears,
Somebody kept believing
You'd find your way someday.
Somebody knew your name,
Somebody knew your heart,
And even when you couldn't see them,
They'd never been far apart.”
Bridge
We drove beneath an evening sky,
The world was turning gold,
I watched the fields roll past the window,
And wondered what I'd been told.
Then I saw a light ahead of us,
A house beside the road,
And there was someone standing there
Who opened up
