I felt in need of some loving so I sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living, but I couldn´t find a reason at all
So I owned up to my maker and I started to say a prayer

I waited for an answer but there wasn´t anybody there

I thought there should have been someone, but I wasn´t quite sure who
It finished me to find there was no-one that I could take my troubles to
So I knelt down by my bedside and I started to say a prayer
It was when I asked for nothing I could feel that there was somebody there

I´m looking still, but it´s easy ´cos I know which way to go
It doesn´t matter how long it takes me ´cos there´s someone there to help me who knows
All the things that I am after, all the loving that I want to share

It´s so hard but I don´t mind ´cos there really is somebody there
I felt in need of some loving so I sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living, but I couldn´t find a reason at all
So I owned up to my maker and I started to say a prayer
I waited for an answer but there wasn´t anybody there
