[Verse 1]
Feelin' like I need you, baby
Just like the day needs light
To make my life seem right
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)

[Verse 2]
Hey, pretty baby
I'm lost 'til you get back
Like a needle that's lost in a haystack
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)

[Bridge]
Well, now you've got me crying
Oh boy, I'm feeling so bad
This lonesome feeling
Is drivin' me mad

[Verse 3]
Feelin' like I need you baby (That's the way I feel)
Just like the night needs the stars (That's the way I feel)
Gonna let you know that wherever you are (That's the way I feel)
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)

[Verse 4]
Hey, hey, pretty baby, baby (Hey, pretty baby)
I'm lost 'til you get back (Hey, pretty baby)
Just like a needle that's been lost in a haystack (Hey, pretty baby)
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)
[Bridge]
Oh, you've got me crying
Oh boy, I'm feeling so bad
This lonesome feeling
Is drivin' me mad

[Verse 1]
Feelin' like I need you baby (That's the way I feel)
Just like the day needs light (That's the way I feel)
Girl, to make my life seem right (That's the way I feel)
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)

[Verse 4]
Hey pretty baby, baby (Hey, pretty baby)
I'm lost 'til you get back (Hey, pretty baby)
I'm like a needle that's lost in a haystack (Hey, pretty baby)
That's the way I feel (That's the way I feel)

[Outro]
Well, now I feel like a bird that's been taken from flight (That's the way I feel)
I worry all day and I cry all night (That's the way I feel)
Feel like a fish moved from the sea (That's the way I feel)
There's no explaining the hurting in me (That's the way I feel)

Oh baby, yeah yeah yeah (That's the way I feel)
Don't you know it now, baby, oh oh (That's the way I feel)
