Lyrics
I need someone to hold me - someone to understand me too,
But I don't want it from anyone else but you.
I need some reassurance - someone to tell me to be strong,
But no one's here to do it since you've been gone.
But all these needs are hopeless, and never will be met.
And no matter how hard I wish, there are things I'll never get, cause...
Chorus:
You're somewhere in the world tonight,
Loving on your baby and holding him tight.
And I'm here alone with no place to go,
Getting bored with the T.V. and the radio.
Cause you're somewhere in the world tonight,
Loving on your baby and holding him tight,
And I'm here alone (here alone)
While you're somewhere in the world tonight
There is no explanation why things turn out the way they do.
I've thought it over and I still don't have a clue.
Perhaps you thought our romance
Wasn't really worth the time to take
And you're a woman who doesn't have time to wait.
But if I'd told you sooner, and let you know somehow
What I was feeling during all that time
You would be here with me now, but...
