Everybody Needs Somebody To Love
Everybody Needs Somebody: A Soulful Anthem of Love and Longing
Lyrics
I'm so glad to be here tonight and I'm so glad to be home
I'm happy to be here tonight and back home.
And I believe I've got a message for every woman and every man
I have a message for everyone, men and women, who ever needed love and someone to stay with them.
Here tonight that ever needed somebody to love
Emphasizing the need for somebody to love.
Someone to stay with them all the time
The desire for a constant companion through ups and downs.
When they're Up and when they're down
Life has its highs and lows.
You know, sometimes you get what you want
Sometimes desires are fulfilled but then lost.
And then you go and lose what you have
Reflecting on gaining and losing in life.
And I believe every woman and every man here tonight listen to my song
The belief that listening to the song can save the world.
And it save the whole world
An exhortation to listen.
Listen to me
A call for attention.
Everybody wants somebody
