I’ve Got A Need For You
See I’ve always been known as a strong man
Though a poor man, I’ve still kept my pride
I’ve never shared love with nobody
Too afraid I’d be cast aside
But see in you, I’ve found something wonderful
I feel so secure in your embrace
Since you’ve entered my world of seclusion
The fears of love’s been erased

(Woah and now!) I’ve got a need for you
Deep down here inside… darling
Ohhh now! Oh I’ve got a need for you
That sets my soul on fire fire fire

Oh before you came into my life
I was carеful not to get involved
‘Cause I witnеssed the heartache of lovers
And the problem that they couldn’t solve
Oh but slowly you crept up on me
And you showed me love’s better side
There’s no doubt that I’d be lost without you
No I couldn’t get a feel for it… try try try try cause

I’ve got a need for you
Deep down here inside… darling
Ohhh now! Oh I’ve got a need for you
That sets my soul on fire fire fire
Oh I melt from every kiss you give me
Oh they warm me on each chilly night
Respect your sweetness brought to me
Has changed my outlook on life
Baby your smile like the morning sun
It shines for me each day… yeah
Your love is such a priceless treasure
Oh please don’t let it slip away
…I love to say I…

(Woah and now!) I’ve got a need for you
Deep down here inside… darling
Ohhh now! Oh I’ve got a need for you
That sets my soul on fire fire fire
