We were young, posters on the wall

Praying we're the ones that the teacher wouldn't call

We would stare at each other, 'cause we were always in trouble

And all the cool kids did their own thing

I was on the outside, always looking in

Yeah, I was there but I wasn't, they never really cared if I was in

We all need that someone, who gets you like no one else

Right when you need it the most

We all need a soul to rely on, a shoulder to cry on

A friend through the highs and the lows

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

Then I saw your face, your forgiving eyes

Looking back at me from the other side

Like you understood me and I'm never letting you go, oh

We all need that someone, who gets you like no one else

Right when you need it the most

We all need a soul to rely on, a shoulder to cry on

A friend through the highs and the lows

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone, I'm not gonna make it alone

'Cause you are that someone, that gets me like no one else

Right when I need it the most

And I'll be the one you rely on, a shoulder to cry on

A friend through the highs and the lows

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone

I'm not gonna make it alone, la-la-la-la-la la

La-la-la-la-la 'lone, I'm not gonna make it alone
