lyrics

Somebody to Adore

I dance in the shadows.
There's safety in solitude, my dear.
Do you want to dance with me?
Yeah, we could have such fun in here.

Willing and able.
Are we trying hard enough?
TV's so easy.
But try to find a real love.

Tell me why we don't speak.
Do we see things differently?
Have you ever felt love?
In my hands it's slippery.

Is it so simple?
The world will kill you in the end.
Look out for my love.
I wish I could call her my friend.

But something is missing.
She gets security where she sleeps.
And he hits harder sometimes.
But she'd still never sleep with me.

Tell me, do you still laugh?
Is it funny anymore?
I just want someone who cares.
I want somebody to adore.

He takes her for granted.
She should take him for everything.
I think she's so pretty.
I think that I should let it be.

If nothing is easy,
Should it be easier for us?
Patience, persistence.
You know someday our day will come.

Tell me why we don't speak.
Do we see things differently?
Have you ever felt love?
In my hands it's slippery.

Tell me, do you still laugh?
Is it funny anymore?
I just want someone who cares.
I want somebody to adore.
I want somebody to adore.
I need somebody to adore.
