To Love Somebody Songtext
von James Carr

There′s a light, a certain kind of light
That never shines on me
I want my life to be here with you
To live with you

There's a way, everybody say
I got to do each and every thing
What good will it bring
If I can′t have you? If I can't have you?

Baby, you don't know what it′s like
You don′t know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you


In my prayers I see your face again
I know that I pray every night
Woman, how could you be so blind? Yeah
When I′m so sad, so doggone sad

I'm a man, can′t you see that's what I am?
When I live and I breathe for you
But what good would it even do
If I can′t have you? If I can't have you?

Baby, you don't know what it′s like
You don′t know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I lo-

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you don′t know what it's like
Just don′t know what it's like


I need you
I love you
I got to have you day and night
I need you
I love you
Always thinking of you
