SOMEBODY TONIGHT LYRICS PAGE
Story Behind the Song
“She was
my first real relationship after I'd left home and was serving in the
Armed Forces. I think all of us learn a lot in life from the lovers we've
known along the way. Nothing is better than first love but nothing hurts
more than first love lost."

No one
smiled and held me close this mornin'
No one
softly sighed, and said she cared
And no
one said she'd wait for me
When I
came in from working late
And now,
when I get home, nobody's there
I guess
she always said I'd find out someday
Well now
she's gone I see the girl was right
When she
said, "no one makes it all alone
We're
nobody without someone,"
Oh, Lord,
I need to be somebody tonight...
'Cause
everybody needs somebody sometime
It seems
we spend our whole lives
Wishing
love could work out right
But now
too late, I know it's true,
I guess
she always knew it, too
Oh, Lord,
I need to be somebody tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
No one's
here to hear me say, "I'm sorry."
Cause no
one's left to tell her she was right
By now
she's found somebody new
To hold
her close and tell her, too,
"Oh,
Lord, I need to be somebody tonight..."
'Cause
everybody needs somebody sometime
It seems
we spend our whole lives
Wishing
love could work out right
But now
too late, I know it's true,
I guess
she always knew it, too
Oh, Lord,
I need to be somebody tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
No one
left her make-up out this mornin'
No one
used my razor and my comb
And no
one's askin' where I've been
When I'm
out half the night, but then
Now, when
I get back, nobody's home
If I
could turn back time for just one minute
I'd
whisper to her as I held her tight
And I'd
say,"I won't leave you all alone
I'm
nobody without someone,"
Oh, Lord,
I need to be somebody tonight...
And
everybody needs somebody sometime
It seems
we spend our whole lives
Wishing
love could work out right
But now
too late, I know it's true,
I guess
she always knew it, too
Oh, Lord,
I need to be somebody tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
Somebody
tonight...
