Nobody Songtext / Lyric

Ridin' on her bicycle to school

A little girl out breakin' all the rules

She don't care about the birds and bees

She's too busy skinnin' both her knees

With the arms of a loving childhood wrapped around her

All the wonders of the world surround her

And with the angels up above her soul to keep

In her bed down here below she falls asleep

She don't need nobody

She don't need nobody

She don't need nobody now

All grown up and livin' on her own

She goes to work and then comes home alone

But she believes someday her prince willl come

There's a lot of life to go at 21

With nothing but her faith in love to guide her

Walk right through that dorr and bet it all

Confident she can take the fall

She's ready for somebody

She's ready for somebody

She's ready for somebody now

As the years go by

The woman's not so sure

She feels an ache inside

That seems to have no cure

How did life get so long

Does no one ever stay

Was the dream of one true love

Just lost along the way

But she believes she has so much to give

Is there any other reason why we live

She still wants somebody

She still wants somebody

She still wants somebody now

Now that little girl is growing old

All of her sad stories have been told

But there are no regrets, she'll place no blame

She knows for everyone it is the same

Even when the well runs dry and the bread's unleavened

And she wondersif there really is a heaven

She finds her way back to that little girl

And wraps her empty arms around the world

She don't need nobody

She don't need nobody

She don't need nobody now
