Lyrics of Need somebody

Now, that i'm getting old and
Now, i'm getting cold and
There's nothing left to say
Just like a daffodil, you know i will
You know wilting in my way

And i need somebody
Yes, i need somebody
Yes, i need, need somebody
Now, i know i'm getting old

This is a lonely life
Man, without your wife
Without a bed or view
I'm always at the gate
And i'm always late
'cause there's nothing left to do

And i need somebody
Yes, i need, need somebody
Yes, i need, i need somebody
Now, i know i'm getting old

Strange tunes in my head
I'll think i'll go to bed
I think i'll change the sheets and all
Maybe do some drawing
Do some painting
An antelope across my wall

And i need somebody
Yes, i need, need somebody
Yes, i need anybody
Now, i know i'm getting old

A visitor out on the lawn
His hair all shorn
Is he friend or is he foe?
Is he a man i know?
Is he someone to sow?
Is he someone to say hello?

And i need somebody
Yes, i need, need somebody
Yes, i need, need somebody
Now, i know i'm getting old

So, i'm so confused
I'm so bemused
I think i'll settle down
Lie down on anywhere
Maybe in this chair
Anywhere i just don't care

Because i need somebody
Yes, i need, oh, somebody
Yes, i need anybody
Now, i know i'm getting old

The friend i saw is at the door
He says, "hello, once more
I met you down the road"
Great long fingers holding out
I want to shout
What's the point because he knows

That i need, i need somebody
Yes, i need somebody
Yes, i need almost anybody
Now, i know i'm getting old

Yes, i need, i need somebody
Yes, i need, i need somebody
Oh, i need almost anybody
Now, i know i'm getting, getting old
