Someone to Believe in Songtext

von Gordon Lightfoot

Is there someone I can believe in, is there somewhere I can hide?
Take me out of the straits I'm in, come and stay here by my side.
Somebody I can rely on, I broke the law, I've been set free.
Give me something to decide upon, come and show yourself to me.

Is there someone sewing seams, through all my hopes, through all my dreams?
You know living a life of ease don't make your meals taste better if you please.
Is there someone I can relate to who will break the ice for me?
Take me out of the place I'm in, come and share your life with me.

Somebody with nothing to live up to who will mend my broken dreams.
Give me a wave I can ride upon, come and show your strength to me.
I have felt the final rush of love's embrace, the magic touch,
Running headlong to attract, I felt the breath of Satan on my back.

Is there someone I can believe in, is there something I can do?
Take me out of the straits I'm in, let me show myself to you.
Somebody to whom I can belong, take my hand, I've been set free.
Give me some wings I can glide upon, come and show yourself to me.
Is there someone sewing seams through all my hopes, through all my dreams?
You know, living a life of ease don't make your meals taste better if you please.
