Everybody

I don't care who you think you are, a rich man mr movie star No matter what you've gained the sacrifice brings the greatest of pain Some times we're prone to look back, and curse the things that we lack One thing remains for sure the memories of times we shared will endure And through all the pain and strife, the hard lessons learned in life One thing for sure I know is over time the grudges we bear will show So I let go, forgive anyone who's ever done me wrong There's only so much time I can waste in life With so much to wonder about and never know why Everybody needs somebody to talk to But a friend ain't always easy to find Everybody needs some hope to get through Everybody needs somebody sometime I spent the summer down on main street People from far and wide I did meet Though none of them were the same they somehow always Seemed the same to me What my eyes could not see, is looks can easily deceive I cut some people off with only one or two seconds glance So if you're thinking only of yourself, with no time for anything else They'll be no lessons learned, no rebirth no joy of experience So I take the chance, I drop my defense, I shade the jaded eye There's only so much time, I can waste in life Thinkin' about ideals that'll never see the light Everybody needs somebody to talk to But a friend ain't always easy to find Everybody needs some hope to get through Everybody needs somebody sometime I was thinking of a long lost friend Wondering when I would see him again And just then well he showed up and though I'd planned I still didn't know what to say And as we sat our eyes met, the memories started coming back And my heart it filled with joy to know we'd both shared dreams We would never forget The best of times they never last And as we grow the days fly past And just like that once more the day's dead end And I was saying farewell again And there goes my friend, yeah he's flying away, and all that I can say Is that I hope next time, his path meets mine We'll both laugh once more like we did yesterday Everybody needs somebody to talk to But a friend ain't always easy to find Everybody needs some hope to get through Everybody needs somebody sometime Everybody needs somebody to talk to But a friend ain't always easy to find Everybody needs some hope to get through Everybody needs somebody sometime
