[Don't say goodbye]
[Please tell me why]
[Everybody needs somebody]
[Like I need you]
[Can't you see we're meant to be together]
[You know is true]
Out of the casual acquaintance
You know the greatest love can grow
We come as far and now I realise I don't wanna let you go
Wanna spend your whole life looking
There is never someone there to guide you through
I never knew that I could hurt with such intensity
so baby let me tell you
Everybody needs somebody
Like I need you
Like I need you baby
Can't you see we're meant to be together
You know is true
[ooh ooh ooh]
Don't, don't say goodbye
Don't make me cry
Tell me that I am not alone
Don't don't say goodbye
Please tell me why
Every now and then I smile to myself
Everytime I think about you
I close my eyes and I see no one else
that's all that I can do
There are times when I am thinking of how it could be
If I'd never met you girl
I believe I would be lonely so I thank you
Please listen when I tell you
[Everybody needs somebody]
[Like I need you]
Like I need you baby
Can't you see we're meant to be together
You know is true
[oh oh oh oh]
Don't, don't say goodbye
Don't make me cry
Tell me that I am not alone
Don't, don't say goodbye
Please tell me why
Everybody needs somebody
Like I need you, baby
Everybody needs somebody
[Like I need you]
Like I need you baby
[Everybody needs somebody] Everybody
[Like I need you]
Like I need you
Like I need you baby
Can't you see we're meant to be together
You know is true
[oh oh oh oh]
Don't, don't say goodbye
Don't make me cry
Tell me that I am not alone
Don't, don't say goodbye
Please tell me why
Everybody needs somebody
Like I need you
Can't you see we're meant to be together
You know is true
