Lord Send Me Somebody

Send me somebody

I need somebody

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I’ve been hurt

Love has brought such pain

But deep down in my heart

I’m hoping just to sing

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Maybe I’ve been much too kind

But how can you change the mind

Of someone who now

Who wants to be true

So I’m asking

Dear Lord, send somebody

(Send me somebody)

Somebody to care

(I need somebody)

So I can show her

So I can show her what love and happiness can be

Someone to protect

To love and respect

To change my sadness

To tears of gladness

Darlin’, darlin’, darlin’

I’ve been so hurt

I nearly, I nearly lost my mind

But I’m not afraid, no

No, I’m not afraid to ask just one more time

Hear me saying

Please

Oh, I need somebody

I need somebody, I need somebody

(Send me somebody)

Oh, my baby, my baby

I need somebody by my side

(I need somebody)

I need somebody, I’ve got to have somebody

(I need somebody)

Oh my God, send somebody

(Send me somebody)
