Somebody To Love Me

(album: Record Collection - 2010)

I don't wanna see you go
I want somebody to love me
Why'd it take so long to know?
I want somebody to love me
I want somebody to be nice
See the boy I once was in my eyes
Nobody's gonna save my life

We are wicked men
Looking for buckles to loosen
By the Count of 10
I wanna see somebody human
And I lost what it was
In the Teenage dust
Of a Downtown Romeo
In a couple of weeks
You can tell all the freaks
How you carried my body home

But tonight I crossed the line
Dear Mr. Lonely
How much could you know me?
I could find lessons in light
But once you've earned it
You've already burned it

I don't wanna see you go
I need somebody to love me
(Need somebody oh)
Why'd it take so long to know?
I need somebody to love me
(Need somebody oh)
I want somebody to be nice
See the boy I once was in my eyes
Nobody's gonna save my life

Got my ticket man and I'm looking
For somebody to use it
I know we pretend
But one of these days
We're gonna lose it
And I once left town
When the leaves turned brown
With a couple of souvenirs
She was in my car
When we hit that wall
Yeah it could've move me to tears

But tonight I crossed the line
I used to know her
When my house was sober
I could find lessons in light
Over and over, is it really over?

[Chorus]

But tonight I crossed the line
I used to know her
When my house was sober
I could find lessons in light
Over and over, is it really over?

I don't wanna see you go
I want somebody to love me
(Need somebody on)
Why'd it take so long to know?
I want somebody to love me
(Need somebody on)
Yeah I want somebody nice
See the boy I once was in my eyes
