[Verse 1]
Girl, I see you crying
Tears running down your face, oh
You're sick of him lying
Need someone to take his place, oh-oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I can give you what you ask for
I can give you what you need
I'm down with anything you're down for
Baby, you can count on me

[Chorus]
What you need is someone that cares for you
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad
('Cause you won't ever have to be sad, baby)
What you need is someone that cares for you (Someone)
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
You say that you are lonely
Need someone to hold you tight
You're faithful to him only
But he never treats you right, no
I'll be there when you call me
I'll be right there by your side (By your side)
And whenever you're crying
I'll be there to dry your eyes
[Chorus]
What you need is someone that cares for you (Oh someone)
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad
(You'll never have to be sad, baby)
What you need is someone that cares for you
(Someone that cares)
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad

[Bridge]
And girl you need to know that
Only a fool would let you leave, ooh-wee
'Cause all the things you need are right here with me
Friendship...trust...commitment
Oh, oh-oh
'Cause I got what you need

[Chorus]
What you need is someone that cares for you
What you need is someone to see you through
(Someone that's gonna love you)
Good times and bad
(You won't ever have to be sad, baby)
What you need is someone that cares for you
(What you need is someone)
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad
('Cause I'm here to dry your eyes, baby)
What you need is someone that cares for you
(Someone that cares)
What you need is someone to see you through
(Someone that's gonna love you)
Good times and bad
(Oh-oh yeah)
What you need is someone that cares for you
(What you really need, someone, yeah)
What you need is someone to see you through
Good times and bad
(You'll never, never, never be sad)
[Outro]
The one thing that matters is your happiness
(Never be sad)
And I wanna be the one that makes you happy
(Through the good and the bad)
Let me be the one
(Through the ups and downs) ('Til death)
To give you what you need
(And I'll always be around, yeah) (Oh)
