In Need of a Friend

You say you know somebody
Someone who feels down when you're feeling sad
Who's up when you're glad
But I don't know anybody
And the person don't know where I stand
Gee, you're a lucky man

Hey, I need a friend (I need a friend)
Not just a wall that I can talk to (I need a friend)
But a mind having doors I can walk through
(I need a friend, yes, I do)

You say you know somebody
Someone who shows you the way when you're lost
At any cost
But I don't have anybody
I grope in the dark and I'm totally blind
Hey, don't you think that's unkind?

Hey, I need a friend (I need a friend)
Not just a wall that I can talk to (I need a friend)
But a mind having doors I can walk through
(I need a friend, yes, I do)

I think I know somebody
Someone who feels just the way that you do
He reminds me of you
But you'll have to find that body
I'm sorry there's nary a thing I can do
You see, it's all up to you

But you'll find a friend (You'll find a friend)
Not just a wall that you talk to (You'll find a friend)
Just show him the door he can walk through
(You'll find a friend, yes, you can)
