I Need to Belong to Someone
[Intro]
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
Need to belong to someone
It hurts to be known as no one
Will ever some sweet girl
Bring love into my world
(Need to belong to someone)
'Cause I, need to belong to someone
(Someone new)
[Verse 2]
Want to be kissed and held tight (Just a little bit closer)
Long to be missed on a cold and lonely night
Someone hear my plea
And call out to me, 'cause
(Need to belong to someone)
I need to belong to someone
Mmm hmm hmm hmm
(Someone new)
[Bridge]
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
No one cares for me (Nobody cares)
I've never known sympathy (Nobody cares)
I hide my needs from the world with a smile
But understand, I'm only a man
[Chorus]
And a man needs
(Need to belong to someone)
To belong to someone
Hurts to be known as no one
Will ever some sweet girl
Bring love into my world
(Need to belong to someone)
'Cause I, need to belong to someone
[Outro]
(Need to belong to someone)
Mmm hmm hmm hmmm
Well I've
(Need to belong to someone)
Got to belong to someone
Just like you
(Oh, yeah)
(Need to belong to someone)
Mmm hmm hmm hmmm
(Need to belong to someone)
I need to belong to someone
Just like you
(Oh, yeah)
(Need to belong to someone)
Mmm hmm hmm hmmm
