We All Need A Lover

There's a girl I know who's walking the streets
With a hole in her heart and a shuffle in her feet.
She ain't no different than you or I,
EXcept she's got a life story that would make you cry.

And we got one thing in common, there's a fire inside
For a knight in shining armor or a princess bride.
Don't believe when they tell you they're fine on their own.
Ain't nobody likes living alone.

We all need a lover 'til death do us part
To share all the secrets we keep in our heart.
We all need somebody to lend us a hand.
We all need a lover. We all need a friend.

Show me the poor man who's living on love,
Got what the rich man has been dreaming of.
Show me the single mom making ends meet
Like Lady Madonna, two kids at her feet.

And we got one thing in common, there's a fire inside
For a knight in shining armor or a princess bride.
Don't believe when they tell you they're fine on their own.
Ain't nobody likes living alone.

We all need a lover 'til death do us part
To share all the secrets we keep in our heart.
We all need somebody to lend us a hand.
We all need a lover. We all need a friend.

Show me the rank politician with bones in the hall
The young beautician is waiting on his call.
She's got a husband at home who's looking for strange
From a girl in the city, begging for change.
She had a dream long ago about a boy in school
Who ran off to college and married a fool.
You see we all need somebody to lend us a hand.
We all need a lover. We all need a friend.
