Lyrics for You Can't Stand Alone

Somebody broke your heart once before, yeah Now you claim you don't want love no more Listen, girl; hear what I say How long do you think you can go on this way? CHORUS: You know you can't stand alone no matter how you try Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I (Everybody needs somebody) (x3) All of a sudden you can't stand alone Love brought you heartaches sometime, so wrong, yeah Don't let it turn your heart into stone I love you, baby; this you can recognize, yeah I see a spark of love deep in your eyes (Chorus) (Instrumental) Love brought you misery; that may be true But that is something that we all go through Oh come put your hand in mine & don't look back Let's fall in love, baby; that's where it's at You know you can't stand alone no matter how you try Got to have somebody to love, goes for you & I (Repeat & fade): (Everybody needs somebody)
