I Need Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you ever feel unhappy, don't know what you wanna do
Do you do you get slap happy, give and take a few
Oh I've never been this lonely, somethin' passed me by
I know what I'm missing, and it makes me cry
Hunting for bounty with a treasure map in my hand
And my secretary says she understands in short hand
Take a note, take a note
Did I really float, in my dreamboat
Is it time to try, before it passes me by
I need love, I need love, I need love
Give it to me
Don't deny me love, I need love, I need love
Lots of it
I wanna o.d. on it
I beg your pardon baby, maybe you can help me out
Could you move a little closer
We don't have to shout you see, I'm a desperate guy
You must've heard it all before
Oh you gotta go,- bye bye - Messin' me up some more
Hunting for bounty with a treasure map in my hand
And my secretary says she understands in short hand
Take a note, take a note
Did I really float in my dreamboat
Is it time to try before it passes me by
I need love, I need love, I need love
Give it to me
Don't deny me love
I need love, I need love
Lots of it
I wanna o.d. on love
I need love, I need love
Let me have it
Let me lay my hands on love
I need love, I need love
Come on, don't deny me love
You see, everybody's talking about love
(I need love, I need love)
To boil my eggs, to stretch my legs
To scratch my back, before I hit the sack
I need love and with a little bit of luck
Love and not just a quick
You know what: I need love
