Who Can I Turn To (Nobody Needs Me) Lyrics

Artist: Tony Bennett

Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)
Tony Bennett
Written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley

Peaked at # 33 in 1964
Also charted by Dionne Warwick at # 62 in 1965
From the Broadway show "The Roar Of the Greasepaint-The Smell Of the Crowd"


Who can I turn to when nobody needs me?
My heart wants to know and so I must go where destiny leads me
With no star to guide me and no one beside me
I'll go on my way and, after the day, the darkness will hide me

And maybe tomorrow I'll find what I'm after
I'll throw off my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter
With you I could learn to, with you what a new day
But who can I turn to if you turn away?

With you I could learn to, with you what a new day
But who can I turn to if you turn away?

One of the best musicals I ever performed in. Roar of The Greasepaint, Smell of the Crowd.

Tony Bennett's rendition of this song is the supreme rendition. His phrasing and syncopation is superb..masterful. The finale can induce goose bumps.

I love this song. Of all the characters I played when I was young and doing theater, I especially enjoyed this one and this song!

I have just been informed that I have a terminal illness. So, in planning my funeral, this lovely song will be played. Impending death is lonely.

This song really reaches my heart and pretty well covers my life of 83 years.

This is own of those songs that make me cry...

Tony Bennett own's this song, who ever else may do it, and however well, they shall still have to take a back seat to Mr. Tony Bennett.It would be like a any really good tenor saxophone player playin John Coltrane's 'A Love Supreme', it can't be topped.

i love this song! Every time I get in the shower, I fancy that I am Tony Bennet, and I'm 81 now! Oh well......

Tony Bennett's version is great. However, Leslie Bricusse, one of the song's writers, has said that, for him, the definitive version of this song is by Marti Pellow. (A Scottish singer most well-known as the leader singer of the band Wet Wet Wet.) His rendition of "Who Can I Turn To?" appears on his album "Sentimental Me." And very good it is, too.

absolutely how I feel. Where do I go? What do I do? Nothing matters anymore. I don't know what to do or where to turn. At 55, it's over. I'm not sick yet, just have no point. Missed the mark. There never was a party. I just pretended. Lied when I was over from doing all the wrong things. Just venting....l

Must rank alongside "Only the Lonely"
as the ulitimate song for all lonesome people in a world that doesn't care
by danny arboly on 9/29/2018 12:14am
I would like to thank Mr.Bennett to sing that melody and a very romantic song which was popularize during that day and year. also to thank Miss Estefan for doing a duet or isay double duet of romantic songs. My best regards to you both. and to your lovely families. take care and more power to both of you. also we will not forget our lord jesus christ the savior . bye . danny a.

This song is like a personal anthem, like Danny Boy, or Auld Lang Syne.Very special. Bob on FM 101.3 in the Boston area plays it.
