You feel it when your heart gets broke
You feel it when you're all alone
And no one knows
I felt it on that long drive home
On that sunset road

You feel it when it's late at night
When you're reaching to your other side
But no one's there
And no cares tonight

Just one
I just want, want to feel special to someone
And I don't need the whole world to need me
Just one
Just want to feel special to someone

When everyone's gone
Cause it all went wrong
I felt it when the lights came on
When the high wore off
And the music stopped
I was looking in the bathroom mirror at a party
Thinking, "Am I really something to anybody?"
To anybody
I don't need a whole world to see me
Just one
I just want, want to feel special to someone
And I don't need the whole world to need me
Just one
Just want to feel special to someone
Special to someone
Special to someone
Special to someone
I just want, I just want
Want to feel special to someone
Special to someone
Special to someone
I just want, I just want
I don't need a whole world to see me
Just one
I just want, want to feel special to someone
And I don't need the whole world to need me
Just one
Want to feel special to someone
