(howe/thomas)
Should have told you by now, but i can't find the words, oh no
If i could show you somehow, but i don't have the nerve, oh yeah
You don't see me looking at you, how can love be so blind
Somehow you don't notice me, sooner or later there will come a time, baby
Chorus:
If you need somebody, the way that i need you
If you wanted somebody, the way that i want you
Oh yeah, the way that i want you
If i could hold you tonight, it would last me forever
But the time's never right, when will we be together, oh no
If i could make you understand, what you're doing to me
Maybe there will come a time, when sooner or later i will make you see, baby
Chorus:
If you need somebody, the way that i need you
If you wanted somebody, the way that i want you
Ooh, if i could tell you now, the way you make me feel
Ooh, if i could show you somehow, don't you know my lovin' is oh so real
(solo)
Chorus:
If you need somebody, the way that i need you
If you wanted somebody, the way that i want you
(if you need somebody) i need you, i want you, i gotta tell you
The way that i need you
And if you wanted somebody, the way that i want you...
