WON'T SOMEBODY
Words and Music by James Durst 
© 1974 PhoeniXongs ASCAP

Thanks, but I'm sorry
I can't go home with you
You see, what I really need right now
Is love
And a night or two won't do

So please, understand me
I'm grateful that you asked
Last week I'd have grabbed the chance
With lust
Today I need somethin' that will last

Won't somebody take me
These arms may look empty
But in reality, they overflow with love
For the one who will carry them away
And give them a lovin' home

And I am tired of superficial smiles
The lies and the promises of love by mail
Taking me a million miles

Won't somebody take me
These eyes may look empty
But in reality, they overflow with love
For the one who will carry them away
And give them a lovin' home

And I am tired of loving without love
The sighs and the emptiness that comes
I think you know what I'm speakin' of

Won't somebody take me
This heart may look empty
But in reality, it overflows with love
For the one who will carry it away
And give it a lovin' home
