You Need Love Like I Do

You need love like I do, you need love, yes it's true
You need love like I do, you need love, yes it's true
You need love like I do, you need love, yes it's true
Yes it's true, yes it's true, yes it's true

Well, well, well, seems like it was only yesterday
When my mama told me, "Don't fall in love
With the first girl that comes your way"
She was pretty and nice, but I took her advice and passed her by
Years have passed and don't look like love's gonna give me a second try

Boy, the look on your face tells me you understand
Could it be your love life, like mine needs a helping hand?

Well, you need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
Well it seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

I can't begin to tell the many nights I sit home lonely
Come on and tell me, girl, has it ever happened to you
I'm gonna tell you something and believe me it ain't no joke
My love life is just like a sinking boat

I can understand a person being without money
But there's surely no reason for a person to be without love
Listen to me now, I'm a girl and you're a guy, yes it's true
Come on let's give love a try

You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?

You need love like I do, don't you?
You need love like I do, don't you?

I know it ain't fit and proper for a girl to talk this way
But I can't cope with this loneliness not one more doggone day
Ain't it true girl? Everyday has been an uphill climb
To keeping my hopes afloat
Judging by your silence boy you must be in the same boat

You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
Well it seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
Well it seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

You need love like
You need love like
You need love like
