[Lyric] Somebody to Love (Galt McDermot & Tom Pierson)

The saddest story ever told, oh Lord
Ah, where do I begin
The saddest story ever told, oh Lord
Is what might have been

I left you my dear, now I regret it
The way in time my heart will come to forget it
Well, I've got to have somebody to hold, oh Lord
I've got to have somebody to hold

Lost without you with no tears left to cry
Oh, my darlin' child I'll simply pine away
And I
I will simply pine away and die
(I'll pine away and die)

The saddest story ever told, oh Lord
Ah, where do I begin?
The saddest story ever told, oh Lord
Ah, is what might have been
Down about my ears the sky is falling
And through all the tragedy can't you hear me calling
Well, I've got to have somebody to hold, oh Lord
I've got to have somebody, got to be bold
I'm cryin' out in the cold
(I've got to have)
Well, I've got to have somebody to hold, oh Lord
I've got to have somebody to hold
