[Verse]
How can you kBnow, but not understand
Why don't you Esee, this is not what I pEmlanned
I rBun and I rF#un
From whG#at I really neEed
But I need yBouE  
And you nBeed mF#e
[Verse]
When you are Bthere, my heart is at ease
But when you Eare gone, oh I fall to my Emknees
I hBide and I F#hide
But my G#heart knows whEere to lead
But I need yBouE  
And you nBeed mF#e
[Verse]
I've loved and I've lBost, too many times
I've weighed all the cEosts, and I'd give my last Emdime
To bBe with the F#one
The G#one I really nEeed
Oh I need yoBuE  
And you nBeed mF#e
