Everybody needs someone
To help them through sometimes
Everybody needs someone
To share the good times
Good good times

I was lost just living life
My existence on the edge
I drank too much yeah it’s my crutch
I didn’t hear what my doctor said

Wasn’t long until I’m sleeping rough
Living underneath the pass
People are good when you’re out of touch
Give me food to eat some a little cash

All I need is some belief
To keep me moving on
A word or two we see you
Just talk to me like I’m not real gone

I got time so much time
I watch the clouds
I feed the birds
You’re rushing by
I see the signs
I feel the love
I read your mind
What’s inside what’s inside

I’m feeling green
I know the sound
I have seen
A living colour
All we know
Is superficial
I can’t grow
Without another

We fall backwards
We never learn what is known
We climb skywards
See how we burn

We only love
Because we see
Our own reflection
In each other’s eyes
Now I want shelter
You’ve had enough
It gets infectious
Second guessing lies

I give my hand to half a shadow
We fall like sand a million pieces

I’m nobody just Mr. Ordinary
Living my life doing no harm
Under ammunition driving my ambition
I had it once or twice I lost it now I’m calm
Everything comes to those who dream
I dreamed a lot and they never came true
I blamed the politicians and the bankers and the rich
All I ever learned was ain’t life a bitch

I never took a chance never took a risk
Though I backed many horses I’d stick and never twist
When a door opened for me
I shut it really quick
I couldn’t walk through it
I couldn’t scratch that itch

I’m happy in these four walls
I have got enough for me
Your Love was complicated
You got hooked on me
I’ll stay inside my box
And I won’t rock the boat
I’m happy and content
To watch you stay afloat

It’s a never ending cycle
Until it ends in the end
You are not my rival
You are my friend my friend

So why can’t we see
Eye to eye
All the years goner
Have gotta mean something

We used to walk in Central Park
Holding hands lying in the grass
Drinks with friends after dark
Why couldn’t we just make it last

At the movies in the afternoon
Then back home to read and fight
Those perfect days are gone too soon
Wish we could be be that young tonight

Everything was straight ahead
Problems sorted out in bed
Every dream were words we’d said
Hearts be one and blood is red

I want to make it big
On the highest stage
Take what you give
Won’t be a slave
No businessman
No superfan
No wrongs to rights
No heavyweight fights

Travel the world
See it all
From a hotel room
It’s a beautiful fall

Buy by the girl
Anything she needs
keep her sweet
Sweep her off her feet
Those shoes cost a packet
Like your Versace jacket
This is subjective
When your money is selective
