Somebody Loves You

Marianne Faithfull · No Regrets [2008]

It's been a long time since you went away

I stop to think of you most every day

With all my heart I'm hoping you're okay

Guess who loves you? Somebody loves you



I couldn't reach you by the US mail

You didn't leave a very easy trail

I tried to telephone to no one bail

Guess who loves you ? Somebody loves you, I do



Na na na na na na na na na na, oh, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na

Someone loves you, somebody loves you



Mind over matter is the game I play

I'll never each you any other way

So I send this one thought to you every day

Guess who loves you? Somebody loves you, I do



Na na na na na na na na na na, oh, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na

Someone loves you, somebody loves you, I do



I couldn't reach you by the US mail

You didn't leave a very easy trail

I tried to telephone to no one bail

Guess who loves you? Somebody loves you, I do



Na na na na na na na na na na, oh, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na, oh, oh

Na na na na na na na na na na

Someone loves you, somebody loves you
