Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everyone needs someone they can talk to
If there's a fire with you, they would walk through
Without hesitation be there
(Because they care) they care
(For you) For you
Their actions show me
[Verse 2]
And everyone needs someone they can run to
In the nick of time they are sure to come through
'Cause they have your best interest at heart
(Because they're part) they're part
(Of you) Part of you
(Their love is true)
[Verse 3]
We all need a soulmate
Someone to hold
When the nights become cold
Someone to love
We all need a soulmate
A shoulder to cry
Just to help us get by
Someone for us
[Verse 4]
Now who in the right mind
Wouldn't want a love they could have for a lifetime?
Someone they can cherish
Someone they can share with for life
[Verse 5]
(I can't name one) Name one
(Person) Person
(Who doesn't want this) No, no, no, no
[Verse 6]
And who wouldn't want someone they can dream with
Not to mention anymore proud than to be seen with
Your lover and your best friend
(It's times like these) times like these
(That we) That we
(Most appreciate) We appreciate
[Verse 7]
We all need a soulmate
Someone to hold
When the nights become cold
Someone to love
We all need a soulmate
A shoulder to cry
Just to help us get by
Someone for us
[Verse 8]
We all need a soulmate
Someone to hold
When the nights become cold
Someone to love
We all need a soulmate
A shoulder to cry
Just to help us get by
Someone for all of us, yeah
[Verse 9]
(Soul, soul mate) Hoo, got to hear me y'all
You got to hear me now, sing
(Soul, soul mate) Soul, soul mate
Gotta be with me now, yeah
[Verse 10]
We all need a soulmate (We all need a soul mate)
Someone to hold
When the nights become cold
Someone to love (We all need a soul mate)
Shoulder to cry
Just to help you get by
Someone for you and me, me and you (We all need a soul mate)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
We all need someone to love sometime
Someone to hold on to, listen baby (We all need a soul mate)
[Verse 11]
Woo-hoo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We all need a soul mate (We all need a soul mate)
Someone to hold
When the nights become cold
Someone to love
When it's cold outside (We all need a soul mate)
And I need a shoulder to cry
To help me get by
