Take this cold heart of mine
Take this man who wants to shine


What's that word in your mouth
I can't hear you when you shout


I cannot take what you cannot give

Everybody's gonna have to hurt somebody

Everybody's gonna need to be somebody
Baby I'm the one
Baby I'll be gone

Everybody wants to know where they belong
Everybody's got the right to get it wrong
Baby I'm the one

Baby I'll be gone

I've always loved you without words

So many things you've never heard

But I need no license for living

I've got my papers in heaven

You cannot take what I cannot give


Everybody's gonna have to hurt somebody
Everybody's gonna need to be somebody

Baby I'm the one
Baby I'll be gone
Everybody wants to know where they belong

Everybody's got the right to get it wrong
Baby I'm the one
Baby I'll be gone


Now that my thoughts have settled down
A seed is growing in the ground


I'm not the friend you're looking for
I'm something less or something more


Everybody's gonna have to hurt somebody
Everybody's gonna need to be somebody

Baby I'm the one
Baby I'll be gone


Baby I'm the one
Baby I'll be gone


Everybody's gonna have to hurt somebody
Everybody's gonna need to be somebody
Baby I'm the one

Baby I'll be gone
