1. I’ve been almost everywhere, trying to find a heart like mine.
I’d like to be in another place and in another time.
Chorus: All that I need is someone who needs me,
And who cares about what I think and do.
So I can stop wishing myself away:
That’s all that I need.
2. Every time I think it’s real, and this time the magic might remain,
But it’s not too long before I fade away and I’m invisible again.
Chorus: All that I need is someone who needs me,
Who really likes having me around.
And I can stop wishing my life away:
That’s all that I need.
Acting in a play where I don’t belong, I keep forgetting all my lines.
The time is right for me to leave the stage one more time…
Chorus: All that I need is someone who needs me,
Who makes me feel better when I’m blue:
So I can stop wishing myself away,
That’s all that I need.
Chorus: All that I need is someone who needs me,
Who says ‘How you doing?’ now and then.
And I can stop wishing my life away:
That’s all that I need.
