For reasons I don't know I treated you so cold  I wish I had those times again  Cause something that you said keeps ringing in my head  Someday you're gonna wanna come back and you're gonna wanna treat me fine     Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little time  Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little     I watched me push you down in dreams I had of you  And all I remember about those days is I would run around thinking that you'd be alright  But you lost your light along the way  And oh you were right about the things I'd say  Cause if I had it back again I know I'd treat you kind     Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little time  Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little time  Everybody got to have somebody  Everybody got to have someone     And all I ever wanted from this play  Was someone to talk to when I get down  It seems you get the things you give along the way  Now all I need is one more chance to make you feel like hanging round     Everybody needs a little  Everybody needs a little  Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little time  Everybody needs a little respect  Everybody needs a little time  Everybody  Everybody got to have someone
