Give me a reason not to smile
Give me a reason why I should lie
I heard the door slam shut behind you
I didn't know what I would do
I couldn't believe
I couldn't believe that it was true


Give me a reason why I should lie
Loosing everything at once
Makes you realize
All you got is yourself but your friends
Will of course always stay close
And they make me realize
I didn't loose, it's you that lost


[chorus]
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone who'll always
Stay close
Everybody need someone to love
To love, to love


Give me a reason why I should lie
Give me a reason not to smile
I heard the door slam shut behind you
I didn't know what I would do
Couldn't believe
Couldn't believe that it was true


Scissors please
Somebody get me a knife
I'm so tired of being tied to you
I've got to get my stuff right
I've gotta cut loose
You know this is the end of our show


[chorus]
(cause)
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone who'll always
Stay close
Everybody need someone to love
To love, to love


And I've found that someone
To love, guess who it is
Been there for a while
Been right in front of my face
To love


[chorus]
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone to love
Everybody need someone who'll always
Stay close
Everybody need someone to love
To love, to love
