The lights are on and it's 2 am
And tonight I really need a friend
I'm standing on the edge of night
Halfway through a timeless flight
You see love's a word
I've yet to feel
And help's the card for you to deal
So here I am again needing a friend
Now all I've got's this loser's hand
And a diary of my one night stands
I need someone to believe in me
A little light so I can see my way
From all these backs street bars
But dreamers never get that far
So here I am again needing a friend
I'm reaching out again
Into the night
I'm reaching out again
But no one's in sight
If there's a lesson to be learned
A little love to be returned
Well then here I am again needing a friend
If there's a lesson to be learned
A little love to be returned
Here I am again needing a friend
And tonight I really need a friend
I'm standing on the edge of night
Halfway through a timeless flight
You see love's a word
I've yet to feel
And help's the card for you to deal
So here I am again needing a friend
Now all I've got's this loser's hand
And a diary of my one night stands
I need someone to believe in me
A little light so I can see my way
From all these backs street bars
But dreamers never get that far
So here I am again needing a friend
I'm reaching out again
Into the night
I'm reaching out again
But no one's in sight
If there's a lesson to be learned
A little love to be returned
Well then here I am again needing a friend
If there's a lesson to be learned
A little love to be returned
Here I am again needing a friend
