I Need You (Vocal)

Hey baby

Come on in, I've been waiting for you

Sit down, relax

You know, I've got a few things I've been thinking about

I'd like to share them with you

I know things have been a little strained around here lately

Because of all the stuff going on outside the house

You know, the pressure, the job

All those things that can weigh you down

You know, sometimes, just sometimes

You bring that home with you

And I understand, but you know

I want us to just stop for a minute

And think about how much we have together

I'm not talking about the material things

You know, I'm talking about the years that we've given to each other

The laughter, the tears, the joy

And oh yes, we can't forget about the heartbreak

But hey, we're still together

Not because we have to be, but because we wanna be

I know we can make it, baby

We can make it, that's right

I mean, look at how far we've come already

All the things we've accomplished, we've accomplished together

Both going in the same direction

Wanting the same things for each other

Sometimes, you know, you call me and you say

"Oh, I gotta work late tonight, I'm gonna be working late"

And I sit back and I start to wonder about

Who you're working with and what you're working on, yeah

And I might get a little upset

But then, you know, you come home

And you always find some little way

To let me know I got no reason to worry, oh yeah

I know you love me

I know you're out there working for me and these kids

So we can buy things that we like

But you know something?

Those things are nice, baby

But if you really wanna know what I need

I need you, that's right

Yeah, I need you

I need more time with you

I need time with your arms around me

More times to appreciate each other

That's what we need together

And more time for all those little things that we do for each other

Because you know, little things add up, that's right

They make big things

It's all those little things that can make a woman feel so special

So loved and so adored, and you do that

Yeah, you can make me feel adored

You do it when you want to

What about me?

Oh, yeah, I know, I know, I have my moments too

When I can get on your nerves, uh-huh

But I want you to realize that taking care of the home, the kids

Working every day, that can start to wear anybody down

So when you come home at night

Maybe it's not lingerie and champagne like it used to be

But you know what's there?

That same old heart, the one that beats for you, baby
