Lyrics

How I Need You

It’s no different from addiction,
This need to be near you, it’s eating me.
My guitar is packed and in the car,
Waiting with my overnight bag,
To drive all day,
Just to spend one night with you.

And they know how I need you,
How I need you in my bed,
How I need you to sing that song you know.
You know that one about,
How far away you are, and
How I bring you back, Love.

It’s becoming an addiction,
A need beyond fixation, it’s eating me.
I will strum my fingers across your body,
Humming a high harmony.

It’s gone beyond a mere compulsion,
This need, my humbling need,
My eyes and hands chord across,
The rise of your breast,
To the shallows below,
To the caverns that I call home.

Oh we know how I need you,
How I need you in my bed,
How I need you to sing that song you know.

You know that one about,
How far away you are, and
How I bring you back, Love.

The one about me,
Playing my love songs on you,
And spending our short nights in tune pleading.

And at last I’m living here with you,
In the echoes of your song,
In the echoes of your song.

And we know how I need you,
How I need you in my bed,
How I need you to sing that song you know,
You know the one about,
How far away you are,
And how I bring you back, Love

How you need me too,
And how clearly this is love,
How clearly this is love,
How you need me too.
It’s eating me, Love.
It’s eating me, Love.
