Is Anybody There? - John Hiatt

Well i’m out here on my own

Followin’a star

Asking on my knees, for some direction, please,

And, god, you know that’s hard

Cause i’m such a stubborn man

Lord, i’m stubborn as a mule

Even though i struggle some, i believe a change will come

And i hear you love a fool

I see a road and a flash of lightning

Let me tell you it’s frightening

Is anybody there?

Oh, i need somebody tonight

To care

I’m feeling alone and it just don’t seem right

Is anybody there?

Oh, i need somebody to be To know that i’m good enough for love

To walk beside me And as a woman in this world

Well you must have felt like this

That a man might come along

With another hard luck song

And betray you with a kiss

But would you reconsider me Though i know i’ve caused you pain

I’ve taken vows with you

I believe them to be true

Now can we take a little rain?

We could hit that road in a flash of lightning

Maybe it won’t be so frightening

Chorus twice

I’m gonna keep on walking, baby
