Joan Armatrading - I Need You lyrics

Late at night
I feel so lonely here's a body next to mine
But I'm feeling cold

And baby in the morning light
When I look in some stranger's eyes
It's then I know that the need in me
Is really for your paradise

I dance i sing
But there's something missing
Every night a different name to call
But, you know when I hold 'em tight
I always give the game away
I try so hard to make it right
But it always ends up the same

You know I need you

I need you like I needed you
The first time we kissed i need you
And I need you now and I can't resist
Standing by your door in case you leave

I miss you mostly in the night
And I miss you through the day
I hate myself for hurting you
Yes I know I drove you clean away

You know I need you but now I need you
