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...
