My time has come, to say goodbye So you my friend, I won't forget until the end of time And don't you even start to cry Just think of better days, and the memories that we made
When I was down, and had no one You came to me, you were so free, our lives had just begun And things would never be the same But the further I'm away, the more you'll hear me say
CHORUS: Everybody needs somebody Everybody needs someone And a shoulder to cry on And when you're down, I'll leave the light on And a shoulder to cry on
And so at last, I say to you There is no one who truly cares or loves you like I do And to the sky we'll fly someday And when we reach the gates, you'll hear the angels say
