Special Kind Of Something
S Club 7 · Other Songs - S Club 7
Somebody said that I wouldn't make it big
Somebody said I would be the kid
To go all the way, to go all the way
My daddy said, "Learn and you will go far
You gotta reach out for the highest star"
That's what she said, so that's what I did
But nobody said that I would feel this pain
Nobody said that I would feel this way
And now I need to explain
I've got something to give
I need someone to hold
I need a special kind of something
Cos I don't wanna be alone
I wanna learn how to love
I need to know how to care
I've got a special kind of something
That I just need to share
I didn't really think about the consequence
I got a one-way ticket out of innocence
But that was my dream, and this is my dream
I can't spend another night on my own
Never in my life felt so alone
Tell me, can I explain?
I've got something to give
I need someone to hold
I need a special kind of something
Cos I don't wanna be alone
I wanna learn how to love
I need to know how to care
I've got a special kind of something
That I just need to share
And if I keep pretending
How will you know, oh oh
The message I keep sending
I've got this special kind of something
That I need to show, oh
I've got something to give
I need someone to hold
I need a special kind of something
Cos I don't wanna be alone
I wanna learn how to love
I need to know how to care
I've got a special kind of something
That I just need to share
(Got something to give) something to give
Someone to hold (need someone to hold)
A special kind of something, don't wanna be alone
(I need special kind of something), uh-oh
(I don't want to be alone)
(Gotta learn how to live) learn how to love
Know how to care (need to know how to care)
A special kind of something, I just need to share
(I've got a special kind of something)
That I just need to share
(Got something to give) something to give
Someone to hold (need someone to hold)
A special kind of something, don't wanna be alone
(I need special kind of something), uh-oh
(I don't want to be alone)...
