When Somebody Needs You

[Verse 1]
Fishing lure moon on a string for you
Didn't you say you need space?
One of us just has to change
You say the same, so I guess we're okay
Twist my umbrella 'til it's inside out
Hand you a bouquet of rain
Saying "Oh, baby, please take a drink"
Did I shout or think I could save you this way?

[Chorus]
Then you looked in my eyes and said
"How dare you love me when you should despise me? You should be scared of me"
It seems that that's what it means
When somebody needs you

[Verse 2]
We'll meet in the middle like pistols at dawn
Turn our backs, who's counting pace?
When the smoke clears arе we friends
Or strangers again? Just a familiar facе
Well, aren't we "us?" sharing pronouns now?
So how could we separately heal?
God, I don't get it, I really don't get it
Could someone tell me how to feel?

[Chorus 2]
So watch your step, or you'll trip and fall right out of love
Be the first one to turn 'round, say, "alright, who shoved me?"
It seems that that's what it means
When somebody needs you

[Bridge]
So we come and we go, we know and are known
There's too many people to trust
Well, it seems to me what we want and we need are the same
And that's someone who'll worry about us
'Til death do us part, please keep breaking my heart
'Til it ceases to beat, please be mine
Well it seems that that's what it means
When somebody
Ohh

[Chorus 3 / Outro]
So if love conquers all, then all else must have failed
I mean, who wants to fall, can't we just take the stairs?
Well it seems that that's what it means
When somebody needs you
It seems that that's what it means
When somebody needs you
