[Verse 1]
Mm-mmm, I never thought you'd go
And leave me all by myself
I never thought you'd go
And leave me here on the shelf
You hear me talkin'?
But whoever thought you'd need me?
Here I am on my bended knees
'Cause I need you, I love you
It's you who I want to please

[Verse 2]
Oh yeah, I know I hurt you so
Can't you give me just one more chance?
Uh-huh, all the girls I give the eye
Whenever we went to a dance
Mm-mmm, I thought I was so good
Makin' you feel so blue
But now I need you, I love you
I never thought I'd run after you

[Bridge]
Oh, but now I know (Yes, now I know)
I really need you so (I need you so)
Oh, please say you'll take me back again
Whoa, when the pain will go
Well, don't you know, now?

[Verse 3]
This day, I promise you
I'll never be untrue
Oh, no matter what others may say
Or others may do
Mm-mmm, I'm gonna run up you every night
And make sure that everything's right
'Cause I need you, I love you
I want you for the rest of my life
[Bridge]
Mm-mmm, but now I know (Yes, now I know)
I really need you so (I need you so)
Oh, please say you'll take me back again
Whoa, when the pain will go
Well, don't you know now?

[Verse 4]
This day, I promise you
I'll never be untrue
Oh, no matter what others may say
Or others may do
You hear me talkin'?
I'm gonna run to you every night
And make sure that everything's right

[Outro]
'Cause I need you, I love you
I want you for the rest of
I need you, I love you
I want you for the rest of
I need you, I love you
I want you for the rest of my life
