I Never Needed You

(Tommy Lee James & Richie McDonald)



Mmm, mmm.



Here I am again

Starin' at these unfamilar walls

Of some hotel so far from home

I try my best to sleep

I close my eyes but all this peace an' quiet

Just reminds me I'm alone

Let me hear your voice on the wind

Let me feel your touch on my skin



I never wanted you the way I want you now

I would give anything to see your arms reach out

I never hurt like this or felt the emptiness I feel inside

I never needed you like I need you tonight.



All I think about

Is how sweet you looked standin' in the doorway

Smilin' while I brushed away your tears

An' all I dream about

Is the next time I can hold you

An' I can show you all the love I'm feelin' here

All I know, (All I know.)

Is I can't wait, (I can't wait.)

My body trembles, my heart aches



I never wanted you the way I want you now

I would give anything to see your arms reach out

I never hurt like this or felt the emptiness I feel inside

I never needed you like I need you tonight.



--- Instrumental ---

(Oh, oh, oh yeah.)



I never wanted you the way I want you now

I would give anything to see your arms reach out

I never hurt like this or felt the emptiness I feel inside

I never needed you like I need you tonight.

Mm, mmm...
