Can you see him tired and shivering?
He's stumblin' through the day
Can you see his lips are quiverin'
Like he's forgotten how to pray?
Can you see the way is perilous?
She's absorbing all the blows
And who will now take care of us
In the hills and valleys, the highs and lows?

All I know is you need someone
In the by and by
Need someone who is gonna cry for you
Yeah, you need someone
In the by and by
You need someone who is gonna cry for you

You need someone
You need
You need someone
In the by and by
You need someone who is gonna cry for you
