Need someone's hand to lead me through the night
 I need someone's arms to hold and squeeze me tight
 Now, when the night begins, whoa, I'm at an end
 Because I need your love so bad

 I need some lips to feel next to mine
 Need someone to stand up - to stand up and tell me when I'm lyin'
 And when the lights are low - and it's time to go
 That's when I need your love so bad

 So why don't you give it up, baby and bring it home to me
 Or write it on a piece of paper, woman - so it can be read to me
 Tell me that you love me - and stop drivin' me mad
 Whoa, because I - I need your love so bad

 Need a soft voice - just to talk to me at night
 Don't want you to worry, baby
 I know we can make everything alright
 Listen to my plea, [bad word] on bring it to me
 'Cause I need - your love so bad
 Baby, I need, I need - woman, I need your love so bad
