It is rather comfort and soothing; dimmed blue lights coloring the cafe. Giving a cool chilling atmosphere yet a warm welcoming ambiance. An average looking cafe located at the corner of the street attracting pretty much customers specially on weekends. People regardless of age fill the "Blue Lagoon"; young mates on the table for two; old lovely couples enjoying the environs. Light on the waxed candle dancing upon the each table for romantic indulgence.

He walks up to the stage. No, he ain’t any rock star or artist. Just another guy living next door who love singing. For leisure he would say.

Do you remember me?,

Thinking about you with somebody else.
Somebody wants you,
Somebody needs you.
Somebody dreams about you every single night.
Somebody can’t breathe, without you it’s lonely.
Somebody hopes that one day you will see, that somebody’s me.
That somebody’s me.
You will always be in my life, even if i’m not in your life.

You, when you remember me?…
And before you set me free, oh listen please…
Somebody wants you,
Somebody needs you.
Somebody dreams about you every single night.
Somebody can’t breathe, without you it’s lonely.
Somebody hopes that someday you will see, that somebody’s me.
That somebody’s me.
Somebody’s me…
That somebody’s me…
That somebody’s me…
Oh yeah…
