I don't wanna see you go
I want somebody to love me
Why'd it take so long to know?
I want somebody to love me
I want somebody to be nice
See the boy I once was in my eyes
Nobody's gonna save my life
We are wicked men
Looking for buckles to loosen.
By the Count of 10
I wanna see somebody human.
And I lost what it was
In the teenage dust
Of a Downtown Romeo.
In a couple of weeks
You can tell all the freaks
How you carried my body home.
But tonight I crossed the line.
Dear Mr. Lonely,
How much could you know me?
I could find lessons in life,
But once you've earned it
You've already burned it.
I don't wanna see you go,
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
Why'd it take so long to know?
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes.
Nobody's gonna save my life.
Got my ticket, man, and I'm looking
For somebody to use it.
I know we pretend
But one of these days
We're gonna lose it.
And I once left town
When the leaves turned brown
With a couple of souvenirs.
She was in my car.
When we hit that wall,
Yeah, it could've moved me to tears.
But tonight I crossed the line.
I used to know her
When my house was sober.
I could find lessons in life
Over and over, is it really over?
I don't wanna see you go,
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
Why'd it take so long to know?
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes.
Nobody's gonna save my life.
But tonight I crossed the line.
I used to know her
When my house was sober.
I could find lessons in life
Over and over, is it really over?
I don't wanna see you go,
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
Why'd it take so long to know?
I need somebody to love me.
(Need somebody oh)
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes.
