Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bein' alone, nobody's home
They can't see my crying eyes
All by myself, nobody else
And now I realize
[Chorus]
You're nearly nothing when nobody loves you
But you're really something when somebody cares for you
[Verse 2]
Losin' my mind, tryin' to find
Someone who cares for me
Somebody to call whenever I fall
They will be there for me
[Chorus]
You're nearly nothing when nobody loves you (Loves you)
But you're really something when somebody cares for you (Cares for you)
[Instrumental]
You're nearly nothing when nobody loves you (Loves you)
But you're really something when somebody cares for you (Cares for you)
[Verse 3]
Bein' alone, nobody's home
They can't see my crying eyes
All by myself, nobody else
And now I realize
[Instrumental]
(Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Instrumental]
(Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Instrumental]
(Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Instrumental]
(Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
