love somebody

you're gonna hurt sometimes

leave you to be

by the side of the road with the dirt and debris

your name in the dust on your face

and you can't shake it off

you're gonna learn some things you don't wanna learn

when the taste of the fruit leaves a bite and a burn

you're taking your heart and your phone

and you're turning them off

but still you're gonna love somebody

don't you wanna love somebody?

you ain't alive 'til you love somebody

everybody wants to love somebody

don't say that you're done

cause you're never done

go on

go on

go on

and love somebody

you're gonna find someday the thicker the wall

the higher the fence

the harder the fall

when you're tryin' to sleep but you can't

cause it keeps spinning 'round

you're gonna go somewhere that you've never thought

you'd ever go again

there's no way to stop

and there's no way to know that you're lost

until you're finally found

that's why you're gonna love somebody

don't you wanna love somebody?

you ain't alive 'til you love somebody

everybody wants to love somebody

you can damn and doubt it

you can cry about it

but you can't live without it

that's why you gotta love somebody

don't you wanna love somebody?

you ain't alive 'til you love somebody

everybody wants to love somebody
