Lyrics Wilson Pickett – 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?

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try
Got to have somebody, that love goes for you and I
(Everybody needs somebody)
(Everybody needs somebody)
All of a sudden
(Everybody needs somebody)
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

You know you can’t stand alone no matter how you try
Got to have somebody and that love goes for you and I
(Everybody needs somebody)
(Everybody needs somebody)
All of a sudden
(Everybody needs somebody)
You can’t stand alone

Love brought you misery; that may be true, yeah
But that is something that we all go through
Oh come put your hand in mine and don’t look back, yeah
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 and that love goes for you and I
(Everybody needs somebody)
