Here, There and Everywhere by The Beatles
[Intro]
To lead a better life I need my love to be here
[Verse 1]
Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with the wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there
[Verse 2]
There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there 👈
[Bridge]
I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
[Verse 3]
Knowing that love is to share
Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

My first thought was that "someone" referred to the man, but honestly the sentence works either way (someone = woman, someone = man). It might be the intended effect of the lyric, showing that both of them feel the same way but they don't realize it.
