Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want

Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want

Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want

Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want
Don't you want

Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

When the truth is found to be lies
And all the joy within you dies

Don't you want

Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love




Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

Line by Line Meaning

Don't you want
Do you not desire


Don't you need
Are you not in need of


Wouldn't you love
Would it not bring great joy to you to


You better find
It would be wise to discover


somebody to love
a person to share your feelings of compassion, empathy, and care


When the truth is found to be lies
When what you thought was true turns out to be untrue


And all the joy within you dies
And you lose all the happiness and good spirits you once had
