Nobody

Ridin' on her bicycle to school
 A little girl out breakin' all the rules
 She don't care about the birds and bees
 She's too busy skinnin' both her knees
 With the arms of a loving childhood wrapped around her
 All the wonders of the world surround her
 And with the angels up above her soul to keep
 In her bed down here below she falls asleep
 She don't need nobody
 She don't need nobody
 She don't need nobody now
 All grown up and livin' on her own
 She goes to work and then comes home alone
 But she believes someday her prince willl come
 There's a lot of life to go at 21
 With nothing but her faith in love to guide her
 She follows the young heart that beats inside her
 Walk right through that door and bet it all
 Confident she can take the fall
 She's ready for somebody
 She's ready for somebody
 She's ready for somebody now
 As the years go by, the woman's not so sure
 She feels an ache inside that seems to have no cure
 How did life get so long? Does no one ever stay?
 Was the dream of one true love just lost along the way?
 But she believes she has so much to give
 Is there any other reason why we live?
 She still wants somebody (somebody)
 She still wants somebody (somebody)
 She still wants somebody now
 ♪
 Now that little girl is growing old
 All of her sad stories have been told
 There are no regrets, she'll place no blame
 She knows for everyone it is the same
 Even when the well runs dry and the bread's unleavened
 And she wonders if there really is a heaven
 She finds her way back to that little girl
 And wraps her empty arms around the world
 She don't need nobody (nobody)
 She don't need nobody (nobody)
 She don't need nobody now
