Some People's Lives Lyrics - Some People's Lives - Bette Midler

Some people's lives run down like clocks 

One day they stop and that's all they've got 

Some lives wear out like old tennis shoes 

No one can use, well, it's sad but it's true 

Didn't anybody tell them? 

Didn't anybody see? 

Didn't anybody love them 

Like you love me? 

Some people's lives fade like their dreams 

Too tired to rise, too tired to sleep 

Some people laugh when they need to cry 

And they never know why 

Didn't anybody tell them 

That's not how it has to be? 

Didn't anybody love them 

Like you love me? 

Some people ask if the tears have to fall 

Then why take your chances? Why bother at all? 

And some people's lives are as cold as their lips 

They just need to be kissed 

Doesn't anybody tell them? 

Doesn't anybody see? 

Doesn't anybody love them 

Like you love me? 

'Cause that's all they need
