Lyrics

I know that I've so mean to my baby
that I made her oh so sad
I've know that her love was true
and that what makes feel oh so bad
The thought of losing your sweet love
is breaking me up piece by piece
by piece by little bit of pieces
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
I haven't thought very much about it
When I left you standing all alone
I so sure that you would call me
just as soon as you got home
How could I think you'd be mine
When I so wrong and so blind
so selfish so unkind
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
Everybody needs somebody
Baby, I need you
