Someone really loves you
Guess who
Someone really cares
Guess who
S'open your heart,
Oh, then surely you'll see,
Oh, that the someone who really cares is me
Someone will wait eternally
Someone who'll want your love,
Oh so desperately
Open your heart,
Oh, then surely you'll see,




Oh, that the someone who really cares,
Who really cares is me
