We thank you for teaching us
how to love, yeah
cos through the years we've lost our way
but you set us right, mmmm
now the time has come for us to say
thank you in a special way
cos to experience we have learned
that everybody needs somebody to love
and everybody needs somebody to care
and every nation needs someone to show them
when you're down he'll always be there.
mmm mmm
children laugh and children cry
sometimes it's hard, to say good bye, yeah
and we all need to open up
all of our hearts, and spread some love
and the time will come for us to say
thank you in a special way
cos through experience we'll learn that
that everybody needs somebody to love, yeah, yeah
that everybody needs somebody to care
(everybody needs somebody to care)
and every nation needs someone to show them (every nation)
when you're down (when you're down) he'll always be there (he'll be there)
he'll be right there
mary
leaning on his everlasting arms, yeah
safe and secure with no harm
see there is something we can do, (we can do)
because it starts inside of you (in you)
for god knows you are my friend, yeah
for forever to the end
(and everybody) and everybody needs somebody to love
(everybody needs somebody to love)
and everybody needs somebody to care (somebody just to care)
and every nation needs somebody to show them
(every nation needs somebody to show them)
when you're down, (when you're down) he'll always be there
(he'll be right there)
