Written by Tony O'Malley & Jim Campbell
lyrics
Do unto others as you'd have them do to you
Take care of all your friends and they'll take care of you
No man's an island and I learned how much that's true
Sometimes we all need someone else to pull us through
Sometimes you need somebody
Can't always do it on your own
Sometimes you need somebody
When you can't get by alone
Sometimes you need somebody
To hear what you got to say
Sometimes you need somebody
Just to help you through the day
When everybody's losing theirs you got to keep your cool
When everybody's being crazy
You can't afford to act the fool
You'll find your ever-loving friends
Can sometimes be so cruel
That's when you've got to take control
Don't add fire to the fuel
Sometimes you need somebody
To help you through the day
Sometimes you need somebody
To guide you on your way
Sometimes you need somebody
To help you make it through the night
Sometimes you need somebody
When you just can't get it right
Sometimes it's easy, sometimes it's hard
Sometimes the pain almost drives you mad
Sick an' tired of feeling lonely
had enough of feeling blue
Sick an' tired of all the mind games
And the foolish things you do
When your world is getting smaller
And the stress is killing you
When you feel you're losing all control
And you're scared of what you'll do
Sometimes you need somebody
Can't always do it on your own
Sometimes you need somebody
When you can't get by alone
Sometimes you need somebody
To hear what you got to say
Sometimes you need somebody
Just to help you through the day
So do unto others as you'd have them do to you
Help you through the hard times
And afresh your soul anew
You can't hide in isolation
Cos that's not good for you
Always keep an open heart
And your mind will follow through
Sometimes you need somebody
To help you get it right
Sometimes you need somebody
To help you make it through the night
Sometimes you need somebody
Can't always do it on your own
Sometimes you need somebody
When you can't get by alone
Sometimes it's wonderful
But then again it's bad
Sometimes you need a friend
But friendship can't be bought
Sick an' tired of feeling lonely
had enough of feeling blue
Sick an' tired of all the mind games
And the foolish things you do
When your world is getting smaller
And the stress is killing you
When you feel you're losing all control
And you're scared of what you do
You need somebody
Yeah, sometimes you need
You need someone
Yes, you doYou need somebody
To help you make it through the night
You need someone
To help you get it right
You need somebody
You need somebody
You need someone
You need someone to make a baby
You need somebody
You need someone
Sometimes you need sombody
Take care of all your friends and they'll take care of you
No man's an island and I learned how much that's true
Sometimes we all need someone else to pull us through
Sometimes you need somebody
Can't always do it on your own
Sometimes you need somebody
When you can't get by alone
Sometimes you need somebody
To hear what you got to say
Sometimes you need somebody
Just to help you through the day
When everybody's losing theirs you got to keep your cool
When everybody's being crazy
You can't afford to act the fool
You'll find your ever-loving friends
Can sometimes be so cruel
That's when you've got to take control
