"Somebody's Somebody" lyrics

"Somebody's Somebody"

Somebody's somebody
Somewhere, someone

It's 2 o'clock in the morning and I just can't sleep
Outside the rain is pouring, I'm lonely as can be
Maybe tonight will be different than the nights before
I need to feel someone beside me, I can't be alone no more

Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
Tonight I wanna belong to someone
(Someone)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
Tonight I want somebody that'll do it until the job gets done
(Oh yeah)

This big old world can be so empty living in it all alone
I realize, in its best disguise, a pretty house don't make a home
There's a hunger deep inside of me, how the fire burns
I wanna give good love to someone and get good love in return, oh

Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(Somebody's somebody)
Tonight I wanna belong to someone
(Someone)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(I wanna be somebody's somebody)
Tonight I want somebody that'll do it until the job gets done
(Oh yeah)

Someone to hold me in that hour midnight
Someone to console me when things ain't going too right
Someone to bring me dinner sometime, yeah
(Mine, all mine)
Somebody to can call all mine

It's 2:05 in the morning and I got no one to call
I'm longing to hear another voice inside these lonely walls
(Lonely walls)
Maybe tonight'll be different than the nights before (Maybe not)
I need to feel someone beside me
I cannot be alone no more (No more, no more!)

Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(Somebody's somebody)
Tonight I wanna belong to someone
(I don't wanna be alone)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(I don't wanna wait another day, no)
Tonight I want somebody that'll do it until the job gets done
(I'll do it over and over and over and over, yeah)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(Ooh, I don't wanna wait, no!)
Tonight I wanna belong to someone
(Can I belong to you, baby? Oh yeah!)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody
(Ooh, slow, deep and long)
Tonight I want somebody that'll do it until the job gets done
(Do me over and over and over and over)
Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody

Oh yeah
If you're out there, come on, baby
I'll keep it hot for you
(Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody)
Come on, baby
(Tonight I want somebody that'll do it until the job gets done, oh yeah)
Done
Somebody's somebody
