Yes it can catch you off guard like bad crimes
Yes it can make you depressed and angry
Make you say why me why won't anybody try me
You might be saying ooh, I don't wanna be lonely
Ooh, I don't wanna be by myself
Ooh, don't wanna be lonely
But there's always someone out there who'll be there for you
There is always someone out there who'll care for you
There's always someone out there who'll be true, true, true
Hold on, hold on, be strong
Love can go away forever if you push it
And you have to remember don't rush it

@numbo655
This might be the most underrated Eurovision song ever
@Dutchgguy1
It came in fifth, not. Very unerated.
@numbo655
@@Dutchgguy1 That's true, it just feels like it has a different quality to it than almost all other esc songs. Like alot of esc songs are good in an esc-context. This is just good on its own. Almost like it's too good for esc. I mean just compare it to some other 5th place songs....
@daintydalmatian
@@numbo655 just like Iceland 2009, this is too good for Eurovision
