You're nobody 'til somebody loves you.
You're nobody 'til somebody cares.
You may be king, you may possess the world and it's gold,
But gold won't bring you happiness when you're growing old.
The world still is the same, you'll never change it.
As sure as the stars shine above.
You're nobody 'til somebody loves you,
So find yourself somebody to love.
