Baby, I need your loving
(I need you near me)
Baby, I need your loving

(I need you near me)
Although you're never near
(I need you near me)

Your voice I often hear
(I need you near me)
Another day, another night

(I need you near me)
I long to hold you tight
(I need you near me)

'Cause I'm so lonely
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Some said, "It's a sign of weakness

For a man to beg than weep"
I'd rather be, if it means having you to keep
'Cause lately I've been losin' sleep

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving
Empty nights, echo your name
Sometimes, I wonder

Will I ever be the same? Oh yeah
When you see me smiling, you know
(And I need you and I want you, baby)

Things have gotten worse
(And I need you and I want you, baby)
Any smile you might see

(And I need you and I want you, baby)
Has all been rehearsed
(And I need you and I want you, baby)

Darlin' I can't go on without you
(and I need you and I want you, baby
This emptiness wont let me live without you

(And I need you and I want you, baby)
This loneliness inside me darlin'
(And I need you and I want you, baby)

Makes me feel half alive
(And I need you and I)
Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
