Lyrics
Is There Anybody There?
I knew before I got your letter,
There was something wrong,
I should have been there beside you,
Where I belong
Maybe we'd still be together,
In another place,
Going home is gonna be,
So hard to face.
Chorus
Is there anybody there
Is there anybody there
Though I already know the answer
I say it like a prayer
Is there anybody there
Was it something that I said or done
Meant you couldn't stay
Or did I feel somebody else's presence
Getting in the way
Lying on our bed alone tonight
I'm really not that sure
Then I think I hear the closing
Of our front door
CHORUS
CHORUS repeat.
