we all need someone

the houses caught fire

caught fire in the field

and the light was astounding

astounding

i guess

i spent many years

many years in the darkness

oh

i'm tired of trying

i did my best

we all need someone to love and to hold

we all need shelter to keep us from the cold

we all need laughter when life gets hard

we all need someone to love us for who we are

alright now

the fireworks sang and danced in the night

so i hid in my bed

so scared that i'll die

i want the whole world

the world at my funeral

watch as the rainbows explode in the sky

we all need someone to love and to hold

we all need shelter to keep us from the cold

we all need laughter when life gets hard

we all need someone to love us for who we are

alright now

no regrets if we walk the same roads

we won't forget who we are

no regret if we walk these new roads

we may forget who we are

no regrets if we walk the same roads

we won't forget who we are

we all need someone to love and to hold

we all need shelter to keep us from the cold

we all need laughter when life gets hard

we all need someone to love us for who we are

we all need someone to love and to hold

we all need shelter to keep us from the cold

we all need laughter when life gets hard

we all need someone to love us for who we are
