somebody to love
Darren Espanto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

For you I'd write a symphony
I'd tell the violin it's time to sink or swim
Watch me play for ya

For you I'd be running a thousand miles
Just get to where you are
Step to the beat of my heart
I don't need a whole lot
But for you I need, I'd rather give you the world
Or we can share mine

I know I won't be the first one
Giving you all this attention
Baby, listen

I just need somebody to love
I, I don't need too much
Just somebody to love

Somebody to love
I don't need nothing else, I promise, girl, I swear
I just need somebody to love

I need somebody
I, I need somebody
I need somebody
I, I need somebody to love

Everyday I'd bring sun around
I'll sweep away the clouds
Smile for me

I would take every second, every single time
Spend it like my last dime
Step to the beat of my heart

I don't need a whole lot
But for you I need, I'd rather give you the world
Or we can share mine

I know I won't be the first one
Giving you all this attention
Baby, listen

I just need somebody to love
I, I don't need too much
Just somebody to love

Somebody to love
I don't need nothing else, I promise, girl, I swear
I just need somebody to love

I need somebody
I, I need somebody
I need somebody
I, I need somebody to love

I need somebody
I, I need somebody
I need somebody
I, I need somebody to love

And you can let it out
Anything you want
I can bring, give you the finer things, yeah

But what I really want, I can't find 'cause
Money can't find me somebody to love, oh
Find me somebody to love, oh

I need somebody to love, yeah
I, I don't need too much
Just somebody to love

Somebody to love
I don't need nothing else, I promise, girl, I swear
I just need somebody to love

I need somebody
I, I need somebody
I need somebody
I, I need somebody

I need somebody
I, I need somebody
I need somebody
I, I need somebody

I need somebody
I need somebody
I need somebody
I need somebody
I need somebody to love

Is she out there? Is she out there?




Is she out there? Is she out there?
I just need somebody to love

It's my first time to post a comment on Youtube. I just want to express my admiration to this boy. He really sings well; I feel relaxed as I listen to his songs. I hope to have a child as gifted as you, Daren. Thanks for making people happy through your talent. GOD BLESS YOU!

THANK YOU LORD FOR ALL THE BLESSINGS YOU SHOWERED TO DARREN ESPANTO....He is a Gift from heaven to all fans.....To the haters they considered him as a threath that contineously scare them because they have garbage in their hearts and have no peace of mind.  To Darren -  YOU ARE  BLESSED AND YOU  GIVE JOY TO OUR HEARTS - THE DARRENATICS.   GLORY TO GOD !!

What i love about darren is that he is a risk taker :) never sya naging complacent sa kung ano meron sya ngayon o kung ano lang kaya nya. Patuloy nya ini-improve ang craft nya, and mahilig syang i-explore ang voice nya ng different genres of music. Kaya mas lalo ako napapabilib sa kanya eh. He is very skilled. And tlagang makikita mo sa bata sa bawat performance nya na he is singing his heart out. Paghusayan mo pa lalo ang talent na binigay sa'yo ni God. Ngayon palang bata ka ang galing mo na, pano pa kaya kpag lumaki kna o tumanda. Mas lalo ka sigurong gagaling. And i notice tlga after nung tvk mas lalo pa syang gumaling. Patunay kung gano nya kamahal ang talent na ibinigay sknya kaya mas lalo nya pang pinaghuhusayan. And with the right guidance, training and management malaki ang potential mo na maging future ng philippine music industy :) soar high kiddo!
