Never Knew How Much (I Needed You)

Time and time again

I've felt these walls of plaster, closing in

And more than once I've felt that lonely, lonely feeling

Wondering why and where I've been

Just about the time, I think I can't hold on

You're always there to keep me hanging on and I say

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)

I never knew how much I needed you

Day after day, I join the rat race

Tryin' to make the most of it

I keep on falling down, down the ladder

Still trying to stay on top of it

Just when I was sure

Nothing could get no better

Oh, I realize I still love you more than ever

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)

I never knew how much I needed you

Today I watch the sun set on the freeway

Strangled on the poison air

But miles beyond, on the other end

I know, you'll always be waiting there

Girl you treat me with your kindest hand

And in my heart, in my mind

And I'm so glad

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)

I never knew how much I needed you

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (ohh) (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (ohh) (needed a girl)

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (oh-ooh) (no, I never)

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl) (oh)

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never), yeah

I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)

I never knew how much a man needed a woman (ohh) (no, I never)

I never knew...
