Are you out there?

Getting closer to me,

'Cause I need you to love,

I know you're beautiful，

'Cause you're in my dreams，

But I need you to touch,

We're looking for somebody to love，

We won't see who's right in front，

We're all human beings, lost in dreams，

When everyone needs love,

We're searching for a soul to touch，

I can tell you there's enough，

We're all worthy of a brighter sun，

Everyone needs love,

Everyone needs love,

Everyone needs love,

Everyone needs love,

Everyone needs love,

Are you out there,

Getting closer to me,

'Cause I need you to love,

I know you're beautiful，

'Cause you're in my dreams，

But I need you to touch.
