Intro

(Now you say):

Verse 1

Every time you need some af-fection,

 The one you love goes in a-nother di-rection,

 And you just sit there in a daze, remi-niscing,

 When you know some other lips, he's been kissing.

Chorus 1

 Now when you need the love he's never shown you;

Come round here,

 And when you need some loving arms to hold you;

Come round here.

 Now I may not be the one you want,

 Oh, but I know I'm the one you need.

 Said; I may not be the one you want,

 Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need.

Break

Your life stands still, the minute he goes,

You count the hours, just hoping he shows, girl...

Verse 2

 Can't you see, while you're longing for his touch,

 That I'm the one who loves you so much.

 And while you're longing for his em-brace,

 You're all alone there, with tears on your face.

Chorus 2

 Now, when you feel the need to cry to someone;

Cry to me,

 And when you feel the need to lean on someone;

Lean on me.

 Now I may not be the one you want,

 Oh, but I know I'm the one you need.

 Said; I may not be the one you want,

 Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need.

 Now the days the days you sit a-lone by your-self,

 He's out fooling 'round with somebody else.

 Leaving you a-lone here, with nothing to do,

 Just waiting 'till he has time for you.

Chorus 3

 Now when the loneliness gets hard to bear, girl;

Come round here,

 And when you need a little tender loving care, girl;

Come round here.

 Now I may not be the one you want,

 Oh, but I know I'm the one you need...
