[From "Company"]
|
|
Someone to hold you too close
|
Someone to hurt you too deep
|
Someone to sit in your chair
|
And ruin your sleep
|
And make you aware of being alive
|
|
Someone to need you too much
|
Someone to know you too well
|
Someone to pull you up short
|
And put you through hell
|
And give you support for being alive-being alive
|
Make me alive, make me confused
|
Mock me with praise, let me be used
|
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive!
|
|
Somebody hold me too close
|
Somebody force me to care
|
Somebody make me come through
|
I'll always be there
|
As frightened as you of being alive,
|
Being alive, being alive!
|
|
Someone you have to let in
|
Someone whose feelings you spare
|
Someone who, like it or not
|
Will want you to share a little, a lot of being alive
|
Make me alive, make me confused
|
Mock me with praise, let me be used
|
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive!
|
|
Somebody crowd me with love
|
Somebody force me to care
|
Somebody make me come through
|
I'll always be there
|
As frightened as you to help us survive,
|
Being alive, being alive, being alive, being alive
|
