Need Your Loving Tonight-Bryan Adams
Elton John · Other Songs - Elton John
Hey, hey, hey
No, I'll never look back in anger
No, I'll never find me an answer
You promised me you'd keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I don't wanna feel like a stranger, no
'Cos I'd rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many times
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I must be strong so she won't know how much I miss her
I only hope, as time goes on, I won't forget her
My body's aching, can't sleep at night
I'm too exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I'll eat my heart out 'cos I love, love, love, love her
Come on baby, let's get together
I'll love you baby, I'll love you forever
I'm trying hard to stay away
What made you change, what did I say
Ooh, I need your loving tonight
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving tonight (oooh, loving, tooo)
Hit me
Ooh, I need your loving tonight
No, I'll never look back in anger
No, I'll never find me an answer
Gave me no warning, how could I guess
I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving tonight
