Heaven 17: Somebody

You've 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 it's a curious fact In every hour in every place That when the right time arrives It feels so good to be alive Somebody Can't you see I'm a boy out of fashion Somebody I'm not part of any nation Now I'm back in circulation When the right time arrives will you be there Tomorrow or a hundred years from now I've wasted years just keepin' movin' on It never entered my head it was here all along Don't ask me why just lead me on Somebody Talk to me I can hear what you're saying Somebody Tired of the city air If I gave you the future would you meet me there I used to stumble and fall I'd run to everyone that called Since you appeared it's 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 You'll 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 you're near me Somebody I can see that you're near me It's the only sound on the city street If I sing you my song will you move your feet Somebody Every moment you're nearer I'm broken down and in a mess Your love is all that I confess Somebody Now I know that you're near me I don't mean to shock, I don't mean to scare But the world won't change and I don't care I used to dream One day somebody near me I can't believe you're making me A rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief There's 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
