If you've never made a fool of me
If you've never had
But you did know and I could see
Now it's making you sad
Well, it's making you sad
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
When you're letting every day go by
Like water through your hands
No, you'll never get it back again
Do you understand?
Do you understand?
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
'Cause there's never been nobody alive
Who can practice everything they've learned
But there's a lot of people who survive
When they've given everything they've earned
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
[B-Side Version]
Did you ever have someone
Take to your heart
Always that feeling
When you're taken far apart from someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
Have you ever had problems
That were hard to resolve?
Never a solution
You can manage on your own
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
If you've never had
But you did know and I could see
Now it's making you sad
Well, it's making you sad
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
When you're letting every day go by
Like water through your hands
No, you'll never get it back again
Do you understand?
Do you understand?
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
'Cause there's never been nobody alive
Who can practice everything they've learned
But there's a lot of people who survive
When they've given everything they've earned
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
[B-Side Version]
Did you ever have someone
Take to your heart
Always that feeling
When you're taken far apart from someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
Have you ever had problems
That were hard to resolve?
Never a solution
You can manage on your own
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone
Everybody needs someone to love
