Like a baby needs to be carried
And a poem needs to rhyme
Like an orphan needs a family
And a writer quiet time
Like a starving child need nourishing
And a bachelor needs a bride
Like the loser needs encouraging
And a winner needs his prize
I need you to free me from my sorrow
I need you to make it to tomorrow
You make me strong when I feel weak
You give me song when I can't sing
And when I'm down and I need you most
You guide me home when I am lost
I need your love
Like a musical needs dancers
And a homeless man a coat
Like a question deserves an answer
And a chord is missing a note
I need you to free me from my sorrow
I need you to make it to tomorrow
You make me strong when I feel weak
You give me song when I can't sing
And when I'm down and I need you most
You guide me home when I am lost
I need your love
Oh yes I do
I need your love
Sometimes when it ain't going right
Still need your love
In the middle of the night
That's when I need your love
When I can't find the light
I need your love
Need your love
I need your love
Woah oh-oh, mhmm mhmm
Your love
