Some people's lives, Run down like a clock, One day they stop, That's all they've got. Some lives wear out, Like old tennis shoes, No one can use. It's sad, but it's true. Didn't anybody tell them? Didn't anybody see? Didn't anybody love them, Like you love me?
Some people's eyes, Fade like their dreams, Too tired to rise, Too tired to sleep. And some people laugh, When they need to cry, An' they never know why. Didn't anybody tell them, That's not how it has to be? Didn't anybody love them, Like you love me?
Some people ask, If the tears have to fall. Then why take your chances? Why bother at all? And some people's lives Are as cold as their lips. They just need to be kissed. Doesn't anybody tell them? Doesn't anybody see? Doesn't anybody love them, Like you love me? 'Cause that's all they need.
