Being Alive - Barbra Streisand

Someone to hold you too close 
Someone to hurt you too deep 
Someone to sit in your chair 
And ruin your sleep 
And make you aware of being alive 

Someone to need you too much 
Someone to know you too well 
Someone to pull you up short 
And put you through hell 
And give you support for being alive-being alive 
Make me alive, make me confused 
Mock me with praise, let me be used 
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive! 

Somebody hold me too close 
Somebody force me to care 
Somebody make me come through 
I'll always be there 
As frightened as you of being alive, 
Being alive, being alive! 

Someone you have to let in 
Someone whose feelings you spare 
Someone who, like it or not 
Will want you to share a little, a lot of being alive 
Make me alive, make me confused 
Mock me with praise, let me be used 
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive! 

Somebody crowd me with love 
Somebody force me to care 
Somebody make me come through 
I'll always be there 
As frightened as you to help us survive, 
Being alive, being alive, being alive, being alive
