YOU NEED SOMEBODY TO LOVE (Lyrics)
© John Cologon 2019
Within a secret, hidden corner of the wood
There lived a lonely man, who thought he really could
Get right away from everybody he had known
And live in peace, some sort of hermit, all alone
There was a stream, he could grow everything he’d need
Which wasn’t much, as he had just one mouth to feed
When you think that you have all that you need
Perhaps you’ve left something important behind
You may think you don’t mind
But you’re gonna find
You need somebody to love
Not far away, but hidden neatly from his view
There lived a beautiful young girl, who thought she knew
She could survive, deep in the forest all alone
In self-sufficiency, away from all she’d known
It was inevitable that their paths would cross
So, each was horrified and justified their loss
When you think that you have all that you need
Perhaps you’ve left something important behind
You may think you don’t mind
But you’re gonna find
You need somebody to love
Life seems a maze, and it’s amazing, if you know
Where to find meaning, if you don’t, it’s sad and slow
To close your heart will leave you drowning in despair
Amidst the craziness, is wonder hidden there
And all it takes is just to open up your heart
Let go of fear – you can’t control it, let it start
When you think that you have all that you need
Perhaps you’ve left something important behind
You may think you don’t mind
But you’re gonna find
You need somebody to love
You need somebody to love
You need somebody to love
