| I’m staring down a stream of sweet impressions
|
| I’m waiting just to sense that special presence
|
| I feel I wanna need somebody
|
| And they can say I’m fine
|
| There’s nothing wrong with me
|
| Somebody sees
|
| Don’t you believe me, honey?
|
| I crawled up on the stage and felt so sleazy
|
| But when I saw their faces it came easy
|
| It freed me
|
| Believe you me
|
| And if you’re gonna love somebody
|
| You gotta lose some pride
|
| But you can’t be part of somebody else
|
| Didn’t they tell you, honey?
|
| Alright
|
| Just like you said about your old boyfriend
|
| And how he screamed his wasted song to the wind
|
| And also, you were talking about the teenage mom
|
| The cellar stairs that she was crying upon
|
| Said you could tell me about a pissed-off kid
|
| Oh and I’m sure he’ll be ashamed what he did
|
| I’m even feeling for his desperate and doped-out dad
|
| So dumb he doesn’t know when he’s feeling bad
|
| My friend he told me that I can’t depend
|
| On anything that doesn’t come from within
|
| Oh but my God, how am I ever gonna help the world
|
| When I can’t even heal the heart of my girl?
|
| I got a need that I just can’t see through
|
| I gotta guess that I’m exactly like you
|
| And more and more I get a tightness 'bout right here in my chest
|
| You lie in bed all day just getting depressed
|
| Oh it’s so bad I wanna break that wall
|
| That always seems to cut me off from you all
|
| Oh but I guess I should accept the way the world, as it stands
|
| It’s spinning totally outside of my hands
|
| Lost in the stars, that are singing their light
|
| Across a hundred million miles
|
| And if you’re gonna love somebody
|
| You gotta lose some pride
|
| But you can’t be part of somebody else
|
| Didn’t they tell you, honey?
|
| And if you’re gonna love somebody
|
| You gotta lose some pride
|
| But you can’t be part of somebody else
|
| Didn’t they tell you, honey?
|
| You gotta love somebody
|
| You gotta love somebody
|
| But you can’t be part of somebody else
|
| Didn’t they tell you, honey? |
