i can take a woman or leave her alone
temporary lovers come and go
you’re the only woman that i’ve ever known
who’s got me losing control
oh i don’t want to dream about you
or wonder where are you
oh i wish my heart could beat without you
but have i gone too far
you say i need you
you think that i need all the love you’re giving
and i need you
’cause living alone isn’t really living at all
never planned to make love a permanent thing
keeping my emotions on the side
kinda like my life just the way that it’s been
girl i’m taking my time
oh i don’t want to miss you baby
but that’s the hardest part
oh i’m trying to resist you baby
but have i gone too far
you say i need you
you think that i need all the love you’re giving
and i need you
’cause living alone isn’t really living at all
who decides which one we love
or when we’re going to fall
i don’t need two hands to hold
two lips to whisper
i need you
like the air that i breathe through an open window
i need you
i can’t let you leave and i won’t pretend no more
