Someone You Need Songtext
von Howard Jones

The streets here are empty.
All the people went home.
Well, I was just wondering,
If you′re alone

So how've you been lately?
I hear you′re a little down.
And do you think maybe
Like I could come around.

I could be someone you need.
Wrap you in blankets on dark winter nights.
Be your best confidante,
Pay the right compliment.
I could be someone you need

We had coffee on 3rd Street
And talked for a time
I still have your letter
I know every line.


I hope this ain't comming
From way out of the blue
'Cos I got to thinking
And I though of you

I could be someone you need
Keep you from burning in the hot summer sun
Roll you in clover
A coat for your shoulder
I could be someone you need

You need someone there
When the world isn′t fair
Or it′s all just to good to be true
Someone to care for you
Issue a dare to you
When the moment comes
You need to fly, fly

I could be someone you need
Wrap you in blankets on dark winter nights
Be your best confidante
Pay the right compliment
I could be someone ... you need
