I Need a Man

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.

When I’m feelin’ lonely, someone telephone me

It’s gettin’ hard to pass my time

Take me out of dining, watch me while I’m filing

Baby, it’s a waste of time

I need a man, perhaps a man like you

I need a man, to make my dreams come true

Say that you will find him creeping up behind him

Moving ’round the town all day

Well, I’m underestimated, highly underrated

Can there be another way?

I need a man, perhaps a man like you

I need a man, to make my dreams

And I need a man

And then I won’t be feelin’ lonely, knowing I’m the only one

He’ll understand what I’m feelin’ deep inside me

Knowing that at last he’s gone.

Well, I’m gettin’ tired of looking, wasting all my cooking

Ending in a dreadful row

Can somebody tell me, say to me or sell me,

Why I’m feelin’ lonely, why

I need a man, perhaps a man like you

I need a man, to make my dreams

And I need a man

And then at night I won’t be lonely, knowing I’m the only one

He’ll understand what I’m feelin’ deep inside me

Knowing that at last he’s gone.

It’s maybe that I’m dreaming, can’t say they I’ve seen him

Somehow, I just got to find

Someone outstanding, loving, holding hands here

Oh, I feel love’s inside

I need a man like you, to make my dreams come true

Perhaps that man is you
