Nobody till Someone Loves You

you might believe you'll have it all if you're a millionaire
but you won't really have a bean if there's no-one to care
you might have servants bowing their heads and greeting you with a smile
but if they really don't mean it it ain't worthwhile
so here's an evergreen cliché, but nonetheless it's true
well you just ain't nobody
till someone loves you

you might believe the world rotates around a buck and pound
but do you honestly believe they make the world go round ?
you get cheap satisfaction from knowing money is in control
but does that give you contentment within your soul ?
I mustn't overdo the point but nonetheless it's true
well you just ain't nobody
till someone loves you

try in life to make it plain
the song you sing is love's refrain

I know it's labouring the point but nonetheless it's true
well you just ain't nobody
till someone loves you
