Song Lyrics

The times I've seen you down
In despair walking round
And felt you that were alone

Baby, someone was by your side
To dry your tears, to make you smile
But you would never have known
(You would never have known)

Though I'm thinking you've realized
(Somebody's looking out for you tonight)
I guess it's only a matter of time

There's gotta be somebody
Somebody who'll love you
There's gotta be somebody
Somebody who'll be there

And if you open your eyes
You'll see for the very first time
That somebody like me
(Somebody like me)
Loves somebody like you
(Somebody, somebody)

You say you're in control, don't need a hand to hold
But still you take it from me
(Take it from me)

Baby, I've seen you fall before
Picked your heart up off the floor
Tell me, baby, why can't you see?
(Why can't you see?)

There's something you should understand
(Everything you're looking for I am)
Or are you busy with other plans?

There's gotta be somebody
Somebody who will love you
(Somebody that'll love you)

There's gotta be somebody
Somebody who'll be there
(That'll always be there)

And if you open your eyes
You'll see for the very first time
That somebody like me
(Somebody like me)
Loves somebody like you

Somebody, somebody that'll love ya
Somebody that'll always be there
Somebody, somebody that'll love ya
Somebody that'll always be there

I need you in my life
To keep me warm through lonely nights
Lying there by your side
Can I be your somebody?
Let me be your somebody, yeah

Somebody, somebody
Somebody that'll love ya
Somebody, somebody
Somebody that'll always be there

And if you open your eyes
You'll see for the very first time
That somebody like me
Loves somebody like you

Somebody, somebody
Somebody, somebody
Somebody that'll love ya
There's gotta be somebody
Somebody who'll be there

And if you open your eyes
You'll see for the very first time
That somebody like me
Loves somebody like you
