1- I've been around a lot of different
places, seen so many faces
Watchin' people holdin'
hands, kissin each other
sayin their "I love yous"
And it's just me with no one
but the blues
Everybody's so happy, happy
they found somebody
Well I'm tired of everyone being happy
but me
Thinkin' about when will love
come to me
I need someone to...
Chorus 2x- Show me (show me love)
Show me (show me life)
Show me (happiness)
Show me (what's it like to love someone)
Somebody show me what love is
2-Been on this path for
a long, long time
Tellin myself everything will be fine
More I say it, more it reminds me how
I'm so lonely
Just got a wake call
I can't let this be
Gotta find someone who'll love me
for me
Don't wanna be alone for another day
Can't go on like this need to find another way
Chorus repeat 2x

I liked reading through this, but I have to say it's so hard for me to look at lyrics without the framework of the music behind them...I could feel the sentiment though, the need to have someone to love and be loved by...Good stuff..

Thank you both! This song came from my own personal expierience and to celebrate June for Black Music Month and the late r&b sensation Gerald Levert.
Love it, my fav so far. When I am awake I will tell all about it.
