Song Lyrics

Went to a beautiful place one time
Didn't care nothing 'bout a nickel or a dime
Sat there watching the river roll by
Spend my whole life with a tear in my eye
Lord, and I'm on my way
Oh and it won't be long
Lord and I'm holding on

Lord I'm on my way
Oh and it won't be long
Lord and I'm holding on

Gravity getting the best of me
Won't be long as far as I can see
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
No use fighting what's sealed and bound

Lord I'm on my way
Oh and it won't be long
Lord and I'm holding on

Pushin' my weight against stone walls
Playin' a guitar given by grandpa'
He never learned to pick one tune
Gave his soul to heaven in the month of June

Lord I'm on my way
Oh and it won't be long
Lord and I'm holding on

Well, if you're tired
and feelin' so lonely
you wake up at night
thinking that only
if you had somebody
I'll be somebody
Somebody to love

Did they tell you, there are
plenty of fish in the sea
but you're drowning and cold
and you're feelin' empty

Looking for somebody
I'll be somebody
Somebody to love

I'll be somebody
If you need somebody
I'll be somebody
If you need somebody
I'll be somebody

If you need somebody
Somebody to love

Are you watching the moon risin'
in the darkest of night

Battered and broken
'Cause you know it ain't right

'Cause you ain't got nobody
You ain't got nobody
you ain't got nobody

And I'll be somebody
I'll be somebody
Somebody to Love

I'll be somebody
If you need somebody
I'll be somebody
if you need somebody
I'll be somebody
You can call on me
I'll be somebody
You can count on me
I'll be somebody
Somebody to love
