| You know how a flower needs a little rain
|
| And how a ray of sunshine needs a window pane
|
| You know how the ocean needs a shore to break
|
| Well I just feel like we all feel that way
|
| People need people when the highs get low
|
| The world’s a bit too heavy for one shoulder to hold
|
| The strongest souls still wear out and the hardest hearts still break
|
| Sometimes you ain’t alright, sometimes that’s okay
|
| So if you’re asking me
|
| People need people
|
| Somebody to call when you’re too close to the edge
|
| Somebody to catch you when you’re dancing on the ledge
|
| Somebody to pray for you, someone that you can pray for
|
| To need and be needed, oh I believe it’s what we were made for
|
| People need people when the highs get low
|
| The world’s a bit too heavy for one shoulder to hold
|
| The strongest souls still wear out and the hardest hearts still break
|
| Sometimes you ain’t alright, sometimes that’s okay
|
| So if you’re asking me
|
| People need people
|
| People need people
|
| Share your way with me
|
| Swear you’re safe with me
|
| I’ll be your shelter
|
| You’ll be my cover
|
| It’s okay to need each other
|
| People need people when the highs get low
|
| The world’s a bit too heavy for one shoulder to hold
|
| The strongest souls still wear out and the hardest hearts still break
|
| Sometimes you ain’t alright, sometimes that’s okay
|
| So if you’re asking me
|
| As hard as this world can be
|
| People need people |
