Phyllis Hyman Let Somebody Love You Lyrics

You been lost inside yourself left your feelings on the shelf
For so long second nature now
You're afraid of promises
You never let a stranger in your wondering arms
Someone worth your down
Anything that time might change you will eventually
Swear that love will never be sincere
Given all just alf a chance, keep an open heart
You can't be happy the way you are

Chorus:
You should let somebody love you
Let a true love find you
Let omebody loe you,
It's not too hard to do if you try
Ooo, if you try

Your desires need a home
They will just wait there alone
Without someone you can share them with
Why put on that same old act
Face up to the natural fact
That everyone needs some love to live
You're not fooling anyone saying you're complete You're only half of what you need to be
Given all just half a chance, keep an open heart
You can't be happy the way you are

Chorus:
You should let somebody love you
Let a true love find you
Let somebody love you,
It's not too hard to do if you try

(You must, you must)
Let somebody love you

[Music interlude]

(You must, you must)
You should let somebody love you
Ooh, let a true love find you
Come on and let somebody love you,
It's not too hard to do if you try

(You must, you must)
Let somebody love you
You got to let a true love find you
Oh, let somebody love ya
It's not so hard to do if you try

(You must, you must)
Let somebody love you
