Doo doo doo doo doo doo x2

So it goes

Everybody needs someone to hold them close

C D

To make them feel like they are not alone

Somebody who always understands

So it goes

You are the only boy I've ever known

C D

Who makes me feel like I am finally home

The only boy who always understands

Why, why, why

Can't we be together

With you, I'm better

I try, and I try, and I try

To find a way to show you

Find a way to hold you

Doo doo doo doo doo doo x2

So it goes

Can't find the words to somehow let you know

C D

Everytime you smile it makes the whole world glow

La da da da da da da da

Why, why, why

Can't we be together

With you, I'm better

I try, and I try, and I try

To find a way to show you

Find a way to hold you

So it goes

Everybody needs someone to hold them close
