Lyrics The Partridge Family

The Partridge Family

Doesn't Somebody Want To Be Wanted

I go downtown and roam all around

But every street I walk

I find another dead end

I'm on my own but I'm so all alone

I need somebody so I won't have to pretend

I know there's someone just waiting somewhere

I look around for her but she's just not there

Oh, doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Where are you

Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Just like me

I'm running free but I don't want to be

I couldn't take another day like yesterday

I'm dead on my feet from walking the street

I need somebody to help me find my way

I gotta get outta this town (outta this town)

Before I do I'll take a last look around

Oh, doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Where are you

Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Just like me

[Spoken:]

You know, I'm no different from anybody else

Start each day and end each night

It gets real lonely when you're by yourself

Now where is love, and who is love

I gotta know

Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Where are you

Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me

Just like me...
