someone to love

without someone to love you
you still can be alright
though the ache of loneliness might come
to haunt you late at night

without someone to love you
the sun’s still gonna shine
though the moon might call out louder
saying someone please be mine

for loving is what life is about
just in case you had any doubt
all the money in the world isn’t worth
one moment of true love here on earth

for loving is what we are made for
no matter how well we ignore
the hunger that’s burning inside
it’ll bite you when it is denied

you can distract yourself
with a world full of things
but nothing but love
can play your heart strings

you can try to pretend
just living’s enough
but all you will get
is an outside that’s tough

without someone to love
you can still sing a song
but you know it is better when
someone sings along

without someone to love
you can be a success
but no matter how much you have
you’ll have less

than someone who loves
someone who loves them back
without someone to love
there’s always one thing you lack

with someone to love
nothing else matters as much
with someone to love
you understand human touch
with someone to love
all the other things are out there
with someone to love
all that matters is what you share

without someone to love
you may never understand
with someone to love
you know what is planned
wherever you land
you’ve got the whole world in your hand
