Chorus till end
Verse 1
I bin lookin' for someone
Between the fire and the flame
We're all lookin' for somethin'
To ease the pain
Now who can you turn to
When it's all black and white
And the winners are losers
You see it every night
Chorus
I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody
I need somebody
Hey what about you
Everybody needs somebody
Verse 2
When you're out on the front line
And you're watchin' them fall
It doesn't take long to realize
It ain't worth fightin' for.etc etc.
Bridge
Another night another lesson learned
It's the distance keeps us sane
But when the silence leads to sorrow
We do it all again - all again
[ Chorus ]
