you're going to need somebody
When you're lost in the dark and you can't find a way When the night is so long you don't remember the day When you're too far gone to hear anybody call When your last deal left you with nothing at all You're going to need somebody, you're going to need somebody You're going to need the one who was standing and waiting for you When nobody wants you, nobody needs you Nobody loves you, nobody feeds you When your ship is sinking in the middle of a sea When they locked you in chains and they've thrown away the key You're going to need somebody, you're going to need somebody You're going to need the one who was standing and waiting for you When you don't live long unless you're fast on your feet When they're taking your furniture right out into the street When you can't sleep at night for counting cracks on the wall When your friends build you up just to watch you fall You're going to need somebody, you're going to need somebody You're going to need the one who was standing and waiting for you When you're lost in the dark and you can't find a way When the night is so long you don't remember the day When you're too far gone to hear anybody call When your last deal left you with nothing at all You're going to need somebody, you're going to need somebody You're going to need the one who was standing and waiting for you You're going to need the one who was standing and waiting for you
