When I get time to myself,
And have nothing to do,
I can't help feel the bitter sweet,
That searches through and through.
I want someone to hear me,
Someone to need me,
Someone to care for,
Someone to share with,
Someone to stay with,
Someone to lay with.
If only I could find somebody,
Someone who will understand,
If only I could find the one to give me what I need.
If only I could find somebody who'll give me a helping hand,
I can't let life pass me by, I'm tired of being me.
I've been lonely for too long, and selfishly I've cried,
I need to pull myself back up,
I need to turn the tide.
I want someone to hear me,
Someone to need me,
Someone to care for,
Someone to share with,
Someone to stay with,
Someone to lay with.
If only I could find somebody,
Someone who will understand,
If only I could find the one to give me what I need.
If only I could find somebody who'll give me a helping hand,
I can't let life pass me by, I'm tired of being me.
So how long will it be?
So I can let go.
I need to turn the tide.
I want someone to hear me,
Someone to need me,
Someone to care for,
Someone to share with,
Someone to stay with,
Someone to lay with.
If only I could find somebody,
Someone who will understand,
If only I could find the one to give me what I need.
If only I could find somebody who'll give me a helping hand,
I can't let life pass me by, I'm tired of being me.
So tired, so how long will it be?
If only I could find somebody,
Someone who will understand,
If only I could find the one to give me what I need.
If only I could find somebody who'll give me a helping hand,
I can't let life pass me by, I'm tired of being me.
So how long will it be, till I can let go? Oooh, till I can let go, till I can let go.
And have nothing to do,
I can't help feel the bitter sweet,
That searches through and through.
I want someone to hear me,

Someone to care for,
Someone to share with,
Someone to stay with,
Someone to lay with.

Someone who will understand,

No comments on this beautiful song! I think the lyrics are pretty self-explanatory; girl is lonely and wishes she could find that special 'one'- 'if only I could find somebody, someone who will understand.' Who hasn't been there?
