When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrainedBut darlin' when I hold you, don't you know I feel the same? yeahNothin' lasts forever and we both know hearts can changeAnd it's hard to hold a candle in the cold November rainWe've been through this such a long long timeJust tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeahBut lovers always come and lovers always goAn' no one's really sure who's lettin' go today, walking awayAnd if we take the time to lay it on the lineI could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine, all mineSo if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrainOr I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rainDo you need some time on your own?Do you need some time all alone?Everybody needs some time on their ownDon't you know you need some time all alone?I know it's hard to keep an open heartWhen even friends seem out to harm youBut if you could heal the broken heartWouldn't time be out to charm you?Sometimes I need some time on my ownSometimes I need some time all aloneEverybody needs some time on their ownDon't you know you need some time all aloneAnd when your fears subside and shadows still remain, oh yeahI know that you can love me when there's no one left to blameSo never mind the darkness we still can find a wayNothin' lasts forever even cold November rainDon't ya think that you need somebody?Don't ya think that you need someone?Everybody needs somebodyYou're not the only one, you're not the only oneDon't ya think that you need somebody?Don't ya think that you need someone?Everybody needs somebodyYou're not the only one, you're not the only oneDon't ya think that you need somebody?Don't ya think that you need someone?Everybody needs somebodyYou're not the only one, you're not the only oneDon't ya think that you need somebody?Don't ya think that you need someone?Everybody needs somebody
