Youve got to face the fact
That in the world today

They try and take away the blue skies
And all the children that play
But its a curious fact
In every hour in every place
That when the right time arrives
It feels so good to be alive

Somebody

Cant you see
Im a boy out of fashion

Somebody

Im not part of any nation
Now Im back in circulation

When the right time arrives will you be there
Tomorrow or a hundred years from now
Ive wasted years just keepin movin on
It never entered my head it was here all along
Dont ask me why just lead me on

Somebody

Talk to me
I can hear what youre saying

Somebody

Tired of the city air
If I gave you the future would you meet me there

I used to stumble and fall
Id run to everyone that called
Since you appeared its been a lot of fun
Between you and me, between the truth and a lie

You have a husband and I have a wife
And when you ask me why with your kissing eyes
How could we be so wrong, oh my oh my oh my
Youll always be there the same as any other

You like a sister and me like a brother
Like all the times I used to dream

Somebody

Smile at me
Let me know that youre near me

Somebody
I can see that youre near me
Its the only sound on the city street
If I sing you my song will you move your feet

Somebody
Every moment youre nearer
Im broken down and in a mess
Your love is all that I confess

Somebody
Now I know that youre near me

I dont mean to shock, I dont mean to scare

But the world wont change and I dont care

I used to dream
One day somebody near me
I cant believe youre making me

A rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
Theres a strange new rhythm in my life
It burns like the sun and cuts like a knife

Everybody chic or shoddy
Turn it loose and use your body
