“When I was writing it, I was feeling pretty miserable and pretty lonely … this one was kind of my on my knees really.”

Adele, in an introduction before the performance Somebody Like You live at home, explains the song as her feelings as her partner has moved on from the relationship.

She described vaguely what their future may look like:

“… I can imagine being about 40 and looking for him again and turning up and he’s settled and he’s got a beautiful wife and some beautiful kids and he’s completely happy and I’m still on my own, it’s kind of about that.”

She is weeping and reflecting of the time she cherishes the man he was. She realises how he has changed; moved on and she adopts a similar attitude in pursuit of her self-discovery. She wants to get over how good of man he was and become happy at last.

Marked this as missing something

it would be a more complete analysis if the reason for the break up of the relationship of Adele and her ex partner was included – it was strongly suggested by Adele that he was a drug addict and the addiction caused the relationship to take them in different directions but not without heartbreak as told in her tear jerking lyrics. it woukd complete the analysis of this was included.
