[Verse 1]

When I look into your eyes

I can see a love restrained

But, darlin', when I hold you

Don't you know I feel the same? Yeah

[Chorus]

'Cause nothing lasts forever

And we both know hearts can change

And it's hard to hold a candle

In the cold November rain

[Verse 2]

We've been through this such a long, long time

Just tryna kill the pain, ooh yeah

But lovers always come and lovers always go

And no one's really sure who's lettin' go today, walkin' away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line

I could rest my head, just knowin' that you were mine, all mine

[Chorus]

So, if you want to love me

Then, darlin', don't refrain

Or I'll just end up walkin'

In the cold November rain

[Refrain]

Do you need some time on your own?

Do you need some time all alone?

Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own

Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone?

[Bridge]

I know it's hard to keep an open heart

When even friends seem out to harm you

But if you could heal a broken heart

Wouldn't time be out to charm you, woah-woah

[Refrain]

Sometimes, I need some time on my own

Sometimes, I need some time all alone

Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own

Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone?

[Verse 3]

And when your fears subside

And shadows still remain, ooh yeah

I know that you can love me

When there's no one left to blame

[Chorus]

So, never mind the darkness

We still can find a way

'Cause nothin' lasts forever

Even cold November rain

[Outro]

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one, you're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one, you're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one, you're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody
