You Can't Stand Alone - Wilson Picket

Somebody broke your heart once before, yeah

Now you claim you don’t want love no more

Listen, girl, hear what I say

How long do you think you can go on this way?

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try

Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I

(Everybody needs somebody)

(Everybody needs somebody)

(Everybody needs somebody)

All of a sudden you can’t stand alone

Love brought you heartaches sometime, so wrong, yeah

Don’t let it turn your heart into stone

I love you, baby;

this you can recognize, yeah

I see a spark of love deep in your eyes

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try

Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I

(Everybody needs somebody)

(Everybody needs somebody)

(Everybody needs somebody)

All of a sudden you can’t stand alone

Love brought you misery;

that may be true

But that is something that we all go through

Oh come put your hand in mine & don’t look back

Let’s fall in love, baby;

that’s where it’s at

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try

Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try

Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I

(Everybody needs somebody)
