Everybody loves somebody, everybody needs somebody
And, darling, this somebody just needs you

A lover needs a lover's lane
A flower needs the touch of spring
A new day needs the kiss of morning dew
A snowflake needs the mountain pass
A meadow needs the green green grass
And, darling, this somebody just needs you
Everybody loves somebody...

(A teardrop needs a place to fall
A river needs a place to flow
A rainbow needs a sky so big and blue
A heartache needs a memory
A seashore needs a deep blue sea
And, darling, this somebody just needs you)
Everybody loves somebody...
