On Your Side

I'm just trying to
Get through to you
But there's no getting through a door
And I'm just hoping to
Break on through to you
Hope you don't mind me hoping
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're only self-assured
With liquor lips and slurring words
Well, the line is clear, the point is blurred
And I'm just hoping you can
Shut your eyes and see for miles
'Cause when they're hoping, they're short-sighted
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
It's a lonely time otherwise
You can tell by her wrists
That she's good to kiss
But her eyes she's good to talk to
But there's a ringing
There's a buzzing in their ear
She can't drink or sleep herself away
And I'm just trying to
Get through to you
But there's no getting through sometimes
And I'm just hoping to
Break on through to you
Hope you don't mind me hoping
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
You're gonna need somebody
On your side
It's a wasted ride
It's a lonely time otherwise
