Lays her head down tries to sleep
Stone cold, she got no heat
Baby crying in the room next door
Small voice crying for a little more
We all need someone to call our own
Someone to share our heavy load
Shed a little light on the mystery
Of who you are and what you want to be
A man's got everything, got all he needs
A heart of passion, a soul of greed
Don't heed no warning, death at his door
Soon he'll be asking for a little bit more
We all need someone to call our own
Someone to share our heavy load
Shed a little light upon the mystery
Of who you are and what you want to be
Oh, no
Can't you see this is a world of pain
Oh, no
Can't you see that nothing stays the same
Stays the same
Oh, no
You feel the same and it's the truth
You've fallen down so low and you're so confused
Can't get enough worth fighting for
'Cause all you need is a little bit more
We all need someone to call our own
Someone to share our heavy load
Shed a little light upon the mystery
Of who you are and what you want to be
Oh, no
Can't you see this is a world of pain
Oh, no
Can't you see that nothing stays the same
Stays the same
Oh, no
Round every corner
Life waits for you
It's up to us to tilt the balance
And hold on to the truth, yeah
Ain't no story, no fairy tale
This life it seems like a living hell
All the suffering behind closed doors
When all we needed was a little bit more
We all need someone to call our own
Someone to share our heavy load
Shed a little light upon the mystery
Of who you are and what you want to be
Oh, no
Can't you see this is a world of pain
Oh, no
Can't you see that nothing stays the same
Oh, no
Can't you see this is a world of pain
Oh, no, oh, no
Can't you see that nothing stays the same
Oh, no
