I Need Love

           F                             Em
When I'm alone in my room, sometimes I stare at the wall
                                         C
And in the back of my mind, I hear my conscience call
         F                         Em
Telling me I need a girl who's as sweet as a dove
                            C
For the first time - I can see I need love
  F                 Em
There I was, joking at my games
                         C
So many hearts and I'm saying no names
     F                             Em
A thought occurred, tears made my eyes burn
                                      C
As I said to myself look what you've done to her
       F                         Em
I can feel it inside, I can't explain how it feels
                                 C
All I know is I'll never dish another raw deal
         F                         Em
Playing make believe,  pretending that I'm true
                          C
Holding in my laugh as I say I love you
  F                      Em
Sayin' amor, whispering in your ear
                         C
Saying I love you, I'll always be here
             F                         Em
And though I often reminisce I can't believe that I found
                       C
Desire for true love floating around
   F                       Em
Inside my soul because my soul is cold
                                C
Half of me deserves to be this way until I'm old
        F                  Em
But the other half needs affection and joy and the warmth
                         C                      F  Em  C
That is created 'tween a girl and a boy I need love
   F              Em
Romance, sheer delight how sweet
                                   C
I gotta find me a girl to make my life complete
   F                        Em
Scratch my back, we'll get cozy and huddle
                                       C
I would lay down my jacket, you could walk in a puddle
      F                               Em
I'll give you a rose, pull out your chair 'fore we eat
                            C
Kiss you on the cheek,  Oh girl ! You're so sweet
      F               Em
It's deja vu whenever I'm with you
                              C
I could go on forever tellin you what I'd do
      F                            Em
But where you are, you're neither here or there
                  C               F                   Em
I can't find you anywhere you're not in my closet or under my rug
                                   C
This searching for love is really making me bug
            F                             Em
So if you know who you are why don't you make yourself seen
                                   C
Take a chance with my love you'll see what I mean
  F                          Em
Fantasies can run, but they can't hide
                                    C                  F  Em  C
And when I find you I will pour my love inside, I need love
         F                      Em
I wanna kiss you and hold you, never scold you
                      C
Suck on your neck, caress you and rub you
  F                         Em
Cry and moan, you'll never be alone
                                   C
If you're standing next to me, or on the phone
            F                      Em
Can't you hear it in my voice?  I need love bad
                                     C
I got money, but love's something I never had
             F                   Em
I need your ruby red lips sweet face and all
                                      C
I'd love you more than the man who's ten feet tall
                F          Em
I'd watch the sunrise in your eyes
                                             C
We're so in love, that when we hug, I feel paralyzed
     F                    Em
Our bodies explode in ectasy unreal
                                    C
You're as soft as a pillow, I'm as hard as steel
         F                       Em
It's a dream, I can't lie, I've never been there
                               C
This is an experience you and me can share
  F                        Em
Clean and unsoiled,  yet sweaty and wet
                                        C                   F  Em  C
I swear to you this is something I'll never forget, I need love
           F             Em
See I've changed, I'm no longer, a play boy on the run
        C                           F
I need something that's stronger friendship, trust, respect and
 Em                                          C
Admiration, this whole experience is such a revelation
     F                       Em
It taught me love and how to be a real man
                          C
To be considerate and do all that I can
       F                                Em
To protect you, you're my lady and you mean so much
                                    C
My body tingles all over from the slightest touch
         F                            Em
Of your hand and understand I'll be frozen in time
                                   C
Till we meet face to face and you tell me you're mine
        F                       Em
When I find you, I swear,  I'll be a good man
                           C
I'm not gonna leave it in destiny's hands
   F                          Em
I can't sit and wait for my princess to arrive
                                         C
I gotta struggle and fight to keep my dream alive
       F                              Em
I'll search the whole world for that special girl and
                                     C                   F Em C
