If You Need Somebody

[Verse 1]
I hate to see you bumming
But boy, I saw it coming
That girl just wasn't meant for you
I see you going through 'em
And nothing I can do, and
I could kick myself for not telling you
The way I feel about you, held back so long

[Chorus]
If you need somebody
To be the one to see you through
If you want somebody
Who knows you just the way I do
If you're tired of searching, baby
And your heart's about to run aground
You only got to turn around
'Cause I've been waiting

[Verse 2]
Never could have guessed it
Best friends since we were kids
But now I lose it every time that you're near
With every new dead end
It's getting harder to pretend
When I know all you need is standing right here
The way I feel about you, held back so long

[Chorus]
If you need somebody
To be the one to see you through
If you want somebody
To understand you like I do
If you're tired of searching, baby
And your heart's about to run aground
Only got to turn around

[Bridge]
And when you're all alone
And your heart keeps saying
You just can't take it
Just take a look around
And you just might find
I'm a chance worth taking

The way I feel about you, a love so strong

[Chorus]
If you need somebody
To be the one to see you through
If you want somebody
To understand you like I do
If you're tired of searching, baby
Your heart's about to run aground
Only got to turn around
'Cause I've been waiting

Waiting, baby
Oh, I been waiting on you
