You Need Me

Wait a minute
Before you walk away
Let me finish
I’ve got a lot to say, yeah
Baby I’m not gonna tolerate
This game that you play, no
You’ll regret it
If you desert me this way, yeah
When there’s nobody
To dry your eyes
Suddenly you’re gonna realize

Don’t you know?
You need me
Don’t you see?
Believe me
Before you act so hastily
Baby remember you need me

Honey listen, don’t make a big mistake
I’m in your system
You really can’t escape
No, no
When there’s nobody
To hold your hand
Suddenly you’re gonna understand

Don’t you know? Yeah
You need me
Don’t you see? Uh huh
Believe me
Before you act so hastily
Baby remember you need me

Don’t you know? Hey
You need me
Don’t you see?
Got to believe me
Before you act so hastily
Baby remember you need me

No one understands you like I do
After everything that we’ve been through
Baby, you can turn around and leave
But I know that you’ll keep
Coming right back to me, yeah darling

Yeah
Woah
Don’t you know?
You need me
Don’t you see?
Got to believe me
Now before you act so hastily
Baby remember you need me

Don’t you know?
You need me, you need me, you need me
Don’t you see?
Believe me, yeah baby now
Before you act so hastily
Baby remember you need me
Don’t you know?
You need me
Don’t you see?
Believe me (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well, baby remember you need me
Don’t you know?
You need me
Don’t you see?
Believe me
