We used to laugh, we used to cry
We used to bow our heads then, wonder why
But now you're gone, I guess I'll carry on
And make the best of what you left to me
Left to me, left to me
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you, I need you
And ev'ry day I'd laugh the hours away
Just knowing you were thinking of me
And then it came that I was put to blame
For ev'ry story told about me
Bout me, about me
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you, I need you
You don't realize how much I need you
Love you all the time and never leave you
Please come back to me, I'm lonely as can be
I need you
Said you had a thing or two to tell me
How was I to know you would upset me
I didn't realize as I looked in your eyes
You told me
Oh yes you told me You don't want my lovin' anymore
That's when it hurt me and feeling like this I just don't go on anymore
Please remember how I feel about you
I could never really live without you
So, come on back and see Just what you mean to me
I need you, I need you, I need you
