"I need somebody tonight,"
You told me talking on the ride home
"I need the love of my life, not just somebody to climb on."

And you say, "I realize maybe I minimize instead of feeling it out."
You say you're losing your mind
But I'll hold the line
While you figure it out

As if you needed a reason
As if you needed a light on
As if you needed the freedom
Of someone you could rely on
If you just needed a break
From the pain and the color of your walls
As if you needed a reason to call me
A reason to call me at all
A reason to call me at all

They'll tell you
"Think small, hit the wall, don't you leave the doll house
Blow it up just because you can take the fallout -
It never happens at the right time."

Yeah, that's what they say

It's hard enough to be human
And worse when you're on your own

As if you needed a reason
As if you needed a light on
As if you needed the freedom
Of someone you could rely on
If you just needed a break
From the pain and the color of your walls
As if you needed a reason to call me
A reason to call me at all
A reason to call me at all

They'll tell you
"Think small, hit the wall, don't you leave the doll house
Blow it up just because you can take the fallout -
It never happens at the right time."

Yeah, that's what they say
