For reasons I don't know I treated you so cold

I wish I had those times again


'Cause something that you said keeps


Ringing in my head

Someday you're gonna wanna come back


And you're gonna wanna treat me fine




Everybody needs a little respect


Everybody needs a little time


Everybody needs a little respect

Everybody needs a little





I watched me push you down in dreams I had of you

And all I remember about those days is


I would run around thinking that you'd be alright


But you lost your light along the way

And oh, you were right about the things I'd say


'Cause if I had it back again I know I would, you know I'd treat you kind




Everybody needs a little respect


Everybody needs a little time


Everybody needs a little respect

Everybody needs a little time





Everybody got to have somebody

Everybody got to have someone





And all I ever wanted from this play

Was someone to talk to when I get down


It seems you get the things you give along the way


Now all I need is one more chance to make you feel like hanging round




Everybody needs a little


Everybody needs a little

Everybody needs a little respect


Everybody needs a little time




Everybody needs a little respect


Everybody needs a little time

Everybody


Everybody got to have someone
